Rose, if yoiu have a LEGAL prescription for Vicodin, go ahead and FILL IT. Why not? If it lasts as long as a month, you're certainly not abusiing it. And why shouldn't you fill it? The prescription is more than legal. He didn't tell you not to. And neither did your Psychiatrist, right/ FILL IT. At least you'll have something for pain. And don't feel bad or guilty about it because your DOCTOR ordered it.

As for the Restoril, he wants your doctor to WEAN YOU OFF the drug -- not to stop it abruptly. He can''t do that or you'l go into a terrible withdrawal that the doctor will be responsible for. You could end up in the hospital if he doesn't wean you.

So stay on the Vicodin as long as the doctor prescribes it for your pain. You're not doing anything wrong. Ok??

God bless -- and keep me posted. Hugs, Lee
