After reading these responses, it's amazing at how different we all are when it comes to this kind of thing. It's such a HUGE eye opener that when people start, they actually feel "normal" from the effect and by stopping, they are "not themselves." That's really an epiphany for me in a huge way.
Anyway, out of the hospital. They have me on antibiotics and no more painkillers. I am a bit sore. I think it's from being on the morphine and having no pain and now I'm going to ache for a bit. The same thing happened after my C-section and I had to take Oxy.
I had an infection of the lower intestine. They ruled out a LOT of scary stuff (like Crohn's Disease and IBS.) I'm just so happy to be home with my family. And I'll be happy to actually sleep w/o being awakened 15 times a night just so someone can poke needles in me.
