Freefall, I hear what you are saying. Definitely I will open up about the fibro if I see it's needed. The orthopedist who blew me off was really a poor excuse for a doc for other reasons, too, that I'll not belabor. But I am truly hesitant to immediately bring the fibro to a doc's attention, after my previous experiences.
Indeed, I am very mindful about the dangers of too much Tylenol along with Vicodin, since Vicodin also includes it. I have talked to my pharmacist and my doc about appropriate amounts and seem to have found an amount that works but doesn't overdose me on Tylenol. Thanks for bringing it up, though, just in case.....
I'm glad you're here at PsychCentral.
