What to do
For those who know me, I've been here for a while.
Had major back surgery last month and got off my pain meds completely for 2 weeks. Was doing so-so despite the pain.
Back pain got so intense I had to do something. Went back to doc and sure enough x-ray showed some post op problems. Went back on meds for just 7 days. Been off for 3 days again now and still in so much pain. I though this surgery would do me some good but post op problems complicated my situation. I stopped my meds last Monday CT and despite just being on them for 7 days (after being clean for a couple of weeks) went back into full blow W/D.
So, I'm stting here wandering what the hell I'm going to do. I want off but the pain is too F*$&ing much. Mind you, I realize that a small portion of that pain is the W/D....
I'm so damned sick of this roller coaster I want off! But I realize I'm not the invincible 20 year old I was back in the 80's...
