I spoke with my state's leading palliative Doctor the other night. Of course I had a bit of attitude by the time I got to speak with her. I apologized and asked her the questions I needed to ask. She didn't belittle me for my decisions. She suggested I start asap on the neurontin and keep a functional journal. How am I functioning today? Then bring it to my doc, either a new one or present one and discuss the use of pain meds and how I feel that the ER is no place to go for emergency pain management and that I want enough meds for crisis like this. She agreed with me about the ER. She said I could really choose if I wanted pain meds on a daily routine or PRN. It didn't matter much. She stated that I would need to find the right fit for me. Indeed, easier said then done. I have had bad time with sciatica and am starting P.T. tomorrow. I have had a horrible week and today is lower back spasm AND sciatica. I hate this!!!!! I have paperwork I was supposed to do for a friend and this laptop does not have the excel that I need to do it on. It is urgent and I am the only one who knows how to do it. It's so important and foolish too. Long story that one. But here I am again, I am using other methods too. I am using herbs and homeopathic remedies. Start chiropractic on Monday. I wish I knew how to win a lot of money and start a clinic with alternative care for anyone in need.

So back on the neurontin am I.

And just to rub salt in my wounds, my Jack Russell has fallen in love with spouse. She comes to my side of the be and I lift her up but then she goes and kisses him and sleeps by him. I told spouse I was getting more puppies and taking them, my two older dogs and moving into an extra room so he couldn't steal my dogs from me. ARRRGGGHHH
