I have lorazapam - that would be comparable to the diazapam, right? Why didn't I connect that before?
It is, though not 100% equivalent. (Well, durrr. If they were 100% equivalent, they would be the same drug. I am states-the-obvious girl.)
I'm trying to just take the percoset at night.
Oh, sweetie, no. That right there is why your pain won't get under control. With pain that bad, you have to take the drug on schedule, to stay ahead of the pain. It is MUCH harder to bring it under control if it's already bad than it is to just control it. If the percocet makes you loopy, try either half the dose or add an hour or 2 hours to the dosing interval.
But take it on a regular schedule to stay in front of the pain. Trust me.
What Tep said, Suzi. And be sure to keep up the ibuprofen with it for the anti-inflammatory.
Thanks guys. I need to count out my Percoset to see if I need a refill to get through the weekend. Might as well be armed with everything when I talk to my doctors office tomorrow.
I have been good about taking the ibuprofen on schedule.
I'm so thankful K-Bug is here. She has been great about driving me around and putting up with my whining.
In totally different news, Noodle has become pretty comfortable having the run of the whole apartment. She tries to play with Miss Kitty and will act submissive around her but Miss Kitty has no idea what to do with this interloper. They are fun to watch.
Aw, Noodle. Confusing the old timer.
Cool enough to open up downstairs. Which I did. Commence sneezing fit. Coincidence?
Got a whole bottle full. And a sexy, sexy couch. IJS.
AND a local roller derby league!
AND a comic-book expo in September!
