 For VERYLUCKY--Thanks!!
Hey--thanks for the reply to my post. Yeah, I do still have MAJOR pain, more than I'd honestly wish on my worst enemy.
As far as the cravings go--I think I have it pretty much licked now....I'm going into day 12 as I write this--yesterday was by FAR my best to date. The diarehea stopped FINALLY....as did the vomitting.I felt better than I had in years. When I began this ordeal, I really didn't think it was possible, but man, as bad as it hurt, and as much hell as it was, I made it through, and hopefully I can pass along a little knowledge, willpower, or even strong and kind words to anyone out there who needs help getting thru this--because it's something that NOBODY should try to go thru alone!!
And yes, I have just recently gotten back on the right track of getting PROPER care....I feel that I have found a Dr. that actually give a crap about me--and my health. (allthough he REFUSES to help me with any pain management other than Topomax and Bextra--both of which haven't helped a bit....FLUSH) =) But nevertheless, the surgical consult has been scheduled, as well as some NEW MRI's, an EEG (EMG?--never heard of it--they say it tests nerve damage.) So we'll see. I do wish I could get some pain relief though--some days it's impossible to even get outta bed--but I now have the will at least knowing I am clean.... Thanks again for the awesome words--and I'll keep you up to date!!
**********As far as cravings........when I wrote this last night, I still had 4 80 mg. Oxy's cut into pieces of 4 laying on my desk for the last 12 days staring me in the face--dunno whether it was a reminder to myself that I COULD do it, or a crutch to fall back on in case I got weak, but as of 7 am....FLUSH!!!!*******
