Well, it's been another week. This past Monday when I went to see my pain doc, I asked him for flexeril, a muscle relaxer. The valiums seem to knock me out too much. And since we just had a nor'easter come through, I knew I was going to have trouble sleeping. Well, those have been a godsend the last few days. They help alleviate my pain at night AND help me sleep, but I wake up the next morning and feel FUNCTIONAL.
I didn't take one tonight. It is now almost midnight, and I need to be up early. I'm still awake though, obviously. Damn it! Sometimes these drugs are a damned if I do/damned if I don't conundrum!!!
