Damned if I didn't get chronic pain just in time for an opiate epidemic that has shut the doors on pain relief... I've been taking loads of extra strength tylenol for almost a year now, it's not kind to your liver, and I can't take any NSAIDS because it will wreck my bone graft...

At least I'm sober right...lol
