I hope I'm not stepping on the boundaries of this new forum, but I too, refuse to take any narcotic pain meds. I choose not to play Russian Roulette with my Recovery. I worked soooo hard for it.

So far, Prayer, acceptance, meditation, journaling, heat, ice, massage, anti inflammatories as well as all kinds of other Rx's that are not pain type meds but for actually treating the diseases are keeping this bearable. I do know, the more I think about the pain, the more it hurts. So, I try not to think about it. I feel that when I focus on something, it only brings it closer to my attention.
