A little nervous

Tomorrow is my first appt. with the pm doc since I stopped the Norco 19 days ago, and he has no idea I stopped.  Little nervous about this.  I know he'll have a script in his hand when I walk through the door.  Not sure if I'm strong enough for this yet!

You could make a phone call before the appointment explaining that you do not want narcotics or the temptation of the offer of them.That would solve it.

I eventually have to face this though no??  Will 2 weeks make that much of a difference?  I can't stop pt since it really is the only thing helping right now.

I think if I just keep thinking that I can't go back to the bad place I'll make it through it.

I'll be busy starching your sheets, but maybe nurse girl can go? All kidding aside. Please do not go. Finish your 2 weeks of PT and then discuss cervical epidural as the time gets closer and even then you'll need a saftey net not to get pills. Even at 8 months clean I was faced with meds in a neighbors house while cat sitting and almost caved. You won't believe the mind f--- that goes on in an addicts brain post pills.

Then tell him the truth that you are done with the pills as there are other ways to deal with pain.
