Hi Fancy and Cleanin, Thank you for reaching out to me. It is just what I needed tonight. I am on Day 12 and I am really happy with my progress. I am still not sleeping great but my legs are getting a little better. My job is good. I am actually having an pretty good week of sales! I have had some brain fog and I cannot remember things that should be automatic like someones name that I just met with or forgetting to put my gas cap back on my car... just a little fuzzy in the brain. It is frustrating but I am pushing through. My neck and back pain (which started this nightmare) is also frustrating to deal with. I work such long hours and I just come home in pain. I have a physical therapy kit here at my house and a tens unit but nothing really helps. I hope it just the drug seeking part of my brain telling me I need it and it will ease up with time.
The thing that I am really struggling with is my son. He has a a drinking problem and I have to deal with that at night when I am home. It isn't easy to deal with - without my pills. I didn't realize how much this really helped me cope with so many things. Not only my pain but the stress of my job and my son. I am not considering using again. I am just trying to figure out how to deal with my son and still focus on myself and my recovery. There isn't anywhere for him to go so it is something that I have to figure out on my own. And I feel pretty overwhelmed and a little down
