Journal Entry for November 5, 2007 Mood
Monday, November 5, 2007

Just another day of pain. Right now it is also a night of insomnia. I heard that Zoloft can do that to you--but man oh man-this is something harsh. I feel like I need an ambien to knock me out. But I have a small baby so that really doesn't work anyway. Maybe this is a good thing. If he gets up at night--I'll be there!

 I have no pain meds for exactly 7 (count em) 7 days. I have been going through some light withdrawal--but more than that I'm just in pain. The Dr. did up my meds by 1 percocet per day--he is afraid I'll get too used to the pain meds and then I won't be able to tolerate them anymore and will not have any options left for my pain. I agree with him, I just wish I didn't have this 7 day gap. 

 So I have 7 days of pain until I can get a refill of my perc. script. But I'm trying to do this all above board--even though believe me I have been tempted to look for "altnerative" forms of "natural" pain relief.

    What a horrible place to be in. Does a hot tub and some relaxing music, may a vibrating hot pad? I'm not trying to be funny. I have all these things and a tens unit too but I am too depressed and just pop my pills when I am in such pain. It awful trying to withdraw especially with a new baby in the houe, I feel for you. So sorry , I pray for some relief for you
