Switched the BT again

[mellie4]

I think I mentioned that using the morphine as a BT med was making me extremely tired.  Way more tired than usual.  I talked to the NP at the beginning of the week and she wanted me to wait until Wednesday or Thursday to see if I didn't get used to it.  And I didn't.  So she switched me back to the oxycodone.  Now I have 15 mg. oxycodone four times a day as needed.  I started back on it yesterday and so far no hot flashes!!!  I'm hoping we'll be able to leave the medications alone for a while now.

Wishing everyone a happy and safe 4th of July!!!

This combination seems to be working well for me.  The road getting there was tough.  Funny how I really just "felt" like we were nearly there ... I should know by now to go with my feelings on just about everything!  Hopefully it will give me a good stretch of relief without having to make any changes.

I hope everyone that's here struggling reaches their goal of pain relief soon.
