Push on, hopefully it will pass soonSending you strength.
Haha. We are slowly heading towards winter. Thank you!!! Enjoy it, I can't imagine winter being good your way. Things are going great kinda avoiding the music scene a bit at the moment. Too much drama.Hello @thatmf. And Thank You for your kindness. I hope that you are enjoying Summer again. wink wink
Any festivals ?? Stay Safe. Enjoy and keep it good always. You have been through a lot.
You will only get better from here.
I admire your strength. And always appreciate the support so much. Because when I hear from you
I know we are still doing good.I can't believe it is Summer again. It feels kind of great. Thanks always
for everything. Oh Your posts make me feel better at least. Lol. But yeah thanxx.
Wish the best ,keep us posted pleaseTomorrow i get surgery. Not really looking forward to it. I'm getting a hip Arthroscopy and they are going to go in my left side and correct a couple different issues.
I hate it when people tell that it's not that big of a deal and I won't be in much pain. I have a lot of those kind of haters in my life and I can't seem to get over people like that.
So yeah. Tomorrow around 10:30 or so I'll be getting surgery, and I'm thinking about how will I tolerate everything, and the recovery afterwards. Luckily I'm staying here at my mothers and douchebagstepdads so atleast i have my mother to kind of care for me because I'm not sure what to expect besides not being able to walk much.
Now as for pain goes, I'm prescribed 3x 8mg Suboxone strips a day, and I've weened myself down to taking 4mg 2x a day.
Considering the surgeon and everyone is aware of this then they won't bother prescribing me anything like a traditional opiate for pain.
Also, I'm prescribed gabapentin 300mg 2x a day and I've already taken them, and I don't get my refill of those until next week.
Also take Robaxin for anxiety also, and same situation, i'm out of those until next week also.
My worry is that the doctor will assume that I won't need anything for the pain, and that's where they are wrong. I'm going to try and advocate for myself and discuss that I would like to take some Lyrica, and would like to have that available for the pain. & I'm not going to take No for an answer because the other shit I take is for anxiety and I'm going to pretend that it's going to help for the pain too.
Ugh just wanted to vent. It's been pretty stressful for me.![]()

Yeah, I can see how you could worried about the doctor not helping you properly with the pain, but a good doctor ( and their support team) will know that pain relief is essential. It's good that you are ready to advocate for yourself. Speak up! And maybe if you point out to them that how you have been cutting back on Suboxone, it will show them how serious you are about controlling any dependency and make them more inclined to trust you with some meds.Tomorrow i get surgery.

I sure hear great things about knee and hip surgeries from my clientsYeah, I can see how you could worried about the doctor not helping you properly with the pain, but a good doctor ( and their support team) will know that pain relief is essential.

For sure scary business getting the surgery but it's happening to improve your life, so that upside is a good thing! Something to look forward to, but I get it, I'm scheduled for knee surgery and dreading it. Ugh, but it is supposed to help me
Yeah, for sure. Some amazing stories, really. Mine is arthroscopic, so less invasive, which makes for quicker recovery than replacement. But some inspiring stories on some hiking forums I looked at from people having full joint replacement.I sure hear great things about knee and hip surgeries from my clients
