Bugger

I haven't really been blogging since my surgery because I've been sleeping.  There are times writing this blog when that is all I wanted.  Now I just can't stand it anymore!  Because it's not like I was wide awake and alert the rest of the time to begin with, before they doubled the Percocet!

The other day I had spilled dinner on my keyboard because I feel asleep eating it,  my car's battery wouldn't start (and like that mattered, I couldn't drive with all this junk in my body anyway), everyone was too busy, and I just wanted to go get some things done.  But I couldn't.  I couldn't go and do anything.

That was it.  I decided it was time to stop taking the extra pain medication prescribed to me after surgery.  That was at night.

Early, early the next morning I was hit with one of the worst migraines of my life.  I tried to stand to use the bathroom, but would inevitable puke before anything else.  The rest of the withdrawals came after…the creepy, crawly want to climb out of your skin feeling, the hot then cold then hot then cold, and all the rest.  

If it was liquid I tried to drink it, especially fruit juice.  But I ran out of that fast.  One of the things I really needed to do was go grocery shopping, but hadn't.  Finally, I slept. The next day started hard, but got better, much better with the help of a friend who drove me around so I could buy groceries and juice and frozen yogurt when I got hungry.

I've begun to think it might have been too early to cut out the extra meds since the incisions have really hurt.  But I am not back tracking now!.

I put it in because I will totally feel this way soon!
