Echoes, thanks. You know, I think I'm hesitant about imposing my wishes because I feel like she's the expert, and that I shouldn't question what she's doing. Huh. Should probably bring that up too. I'm going to need a list on Friday!

The pain isn't really too bad. Just...frustrating, because it only hurts when I walk, so I feel like I shouldn't take my pain pills because instead I could just sit down and the pain would stop. In any case, I haven't taken any oxycodone/oxycontin since I was 5 days post. Maybe I should have when I couldn't sleep, I pass out cold on that stuff. I can't take vicodin, it makes me throw up constantly. There's been a lot of experimenting over the years to figure out what pain meds I can tolerate.

I had looked through that site earlier, and I had to admit something I read there really freaked me out. So much of it was good and then there was what I felt a violently inappropriate response from him towards a patient that left me very disturbed. So now I'm feeling kind of wary of anything he says, it colors it for me.
