Dear Bab-I, too was an an RN, a recovering addict of 6 years....my drug of choice...Dilaudid and Morphine.....GREAT, huh? I had all the narcotics keys to all the narcotics boxes in the whole hospital......not good. I kicked it cold turkey...I am hoping that you will get clean or are you clean, yet? If you are, I am re-reading your drugs that you are on and you are clean, excuse me for the mistake, DUH. It is NOT a dumb mistake , it is called ADDICTICION.....we are addicts. Get yourself to some NA meetings, keep posting here and we are here pullling for you. Also QUIT beating yourself up...I did it for years and it just made me feel bad and hindered my recovery. I also had back problems-Facet Syndrome....PM if you want ......PEACE.....Kahlia
