Eileen,You dont ever have to be sorry with me for anything you do.I will never judge you and if there is something that will help you get a quality of life that is better then you have now,I want you to take it.A muscle relaxer is not a relapse,please dont worry about that.Its not an opiate and you will be fine.I am happy to hear you got a good nights sleep out of it,hope it helps to ease he pain as well.Its time we both got better news about our conditions,Mine I hope comes on the 9th when I meet with the surgeon,and yours when you get the results of all your blood work.That sleep study sounds great,a mini vacation,where you do nothing but sleep,sign me up.Mind sharing a room LOL.

Honestly Eileen,I really think if I start again,I wont be able to stop.I would lose so much.My wife cant go through that again ,and I cant let my kids do it either.I would lose the friendship of someone named Eileen who means so much to me,because I wouldnt be able to face her anymore.She is a woman who day in and day out is in more pain then I am and she has resisted everything that would make it tolerable.I stopped taking my Suboxone just so the Drug would get me high,thats how much I wanted it.But as soon as I got home,I took my dose.I made it this time,but dont know if the next time I will also,after surgery I will really have a test,I hope I can do it,with support from you it really makes me try.Thank you Eileen for all you have done for me
Much love and hugs

Hi Eileen
I had the discogram today,and have to tell you It hurt like hell.I never felt so much pain in my back before.They went to each level and injected each disc with a contrast,causing so much pressure to replicate your pain,so they cant numb me up before hand,I have to tell them how bad it hurts and where.Out of 4 levels only one did not hurt,3 almost sent me off the table,as did the time they hit a nerve with the needle.It took about 2 hours of agony then I had a CT Scan.
After they wheeled me back to recovery,thye asked me how I felt and told them still in a lot of pain.They said they would give me a shot of Dilaudid,and my eyes lit up.I looked at my wife,saw the look in her eyes,and told them ,no,I will be okay.I couldnt do that to her again.
