New Pain Med !!!



My Doctor prescribed a new pain medication for me. I took the first pill about noon and it has worked wonders.

I have not needed an OXY since I took it at noon. It allowed me to work outside doing chores I have put off and start a new project for a blog to hopefully post in th next few day. A sunny day mild breeze and a temp of 52 F... 12 C. Nice to work outside in the yard for a change.

That is GREAT NEWS Darter. I'm so happy for you. It's about time your Dr came up with the right medication to help you better manage the extreme pain you have been enduring.

It was a nice day here, sunny and reaching a high of 55F. I laid out on the E deck in the morning to get some tanning action. I also put away the snow shovel for the season and cleaned the garage floor. I had a salad and grilled tuna sand for lunch and spaghetti for supper. I eve went to a small town to the West and got my blood work done. Waiting time just 4 minutes. If I went to the city, it would be several hours. Overall. it's been a great day. 2morrow is going to be even warmer.

Happy Easter!!

Hope you can get to the bottom of your problem with this blood work. I just had so outdoors chores I wanted to do now without pain... even just walking.
