If you're worried about the BBQ don't go Shea...your sobriety has to be paramount to everything else...being sober is the only way we move forward.

As regards the pain management thoughts....I have chronic pain too - I found alcohol was fairly ineffective as a pain management tool. I suspect you have too.

I wish you well with your new pain dr. If this one is similar to the last, try again...it's vital that recovering alcoholics have a pain management doctor who understands their needs and their situation. Sometimes to find that dr. takes some searching, but don't give up
