1 Week Ago Today

Question

I took my last 1/2 Tramadol....haven't touched them since and won't..did a lot of tough yard work over the weekend (which 3 months ago I wouldn't have even started) and my back was killing me...my wife again offered me a perc "no and please don't ask again...I can call the pharmacy and get my tramadol refilled"  "well, why don't you?"  "I'm an addict, remember...and I promised you and myself that I would get clean and that's what I'm doing.  Never again will they be in the house"

(My wife does take percs legitimately for chronic pain under the careful guise of her doctor)..


in a short time I'm calling the pharmacy and cancelling my refills (3 of 120 pills each)..

7 days is a miracle, and an inspiration to me.  I'm glad things are getting better for you.

Your doing great gizmo. I always liked your screen name cause gizmo ( AKA gizzy)was my first dog I ever had that I had to put down about 10 months ago, I miss him everyday still. Congrats on cancelling your refills too, that is huge.
