Hello class! Tough day for me. It is humid and raining here, two things that just send my knee pain in to overdrive. Today I experienced real, true pain and it started to make me question if I was doing the right thing. Then I played the tape to the end. I may get some temporary relief from pain meds - but I have no control over them, none. And I would IMMEDIATELY begin abusing them again. And I would wind up right back on the 20 year merry-go-round from hell that I have spent 9 long days trying to get off of. I am not going to give up this time I have put in. I can't even remember the last time I had 9 days clean.

So tonight it's ice, elevation, and motrin. Best choice I have made in a long long time. Best wishes to all my fellow colleagues here
