NO pain for the first time in 19 months. OMG!

[martikadragoon]

those of you who know my story know I have a lower back injury from a fall down the stairs 19 months ago. I've had chronic pain ever since to the point that I can't lift my kids or do chores....

After reading up on rebound pain from opiate pain meds I decided to stop them and stick with nsaids. I'm just over a week off any narcotic pain meds and I woke up today with NO pain!

I didn't have a lidoderm patch on or anything in my system. no NSAIDS either..... I feel like it's a miracle, lol.  The only thing I have in my system is neurontin and yesterday I decided to go up to the dose my dr wants me to end up at which is 800mg (i'm on 300 currently) to see what happened.....

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tuck, of course i'll keep up on here.   I just feel a freedom from having to take those pain meds. it's great! my hubby is alot happier too.  When I got up this A.M. and told him about  how well I felt he just smiled at me.

I g2g.. my boys are lonely and need playtime.
