Sometimes "blunt" is what has to happen. I discovered too that much of my "pain" that I took pills for was anticipatory pain and not real pain.My brain tricked me into believing I needed the pills and I really believed it. In the 7 1/2 years I have been in recovery I have had major dental work and hurt my back twice and OTC Aleve and Ibuprofen have been absolutely sufficient to relieve that pain.
Please keep us posted on your recovery. Find a good therapist. For me, that was my saving grace. I have one I still see on occaision to just stay on course and she is a God send.
You will be in my prayers!
