After falling on Sunday, I was surprised to see that I didn't have more pain on Monday. But by Tuesday afternoon, I was back to my original pain from my 1st fall back in 1996. My regular pain dr. monthly appointment was Tuesday morning and I had to change it to afternoon due to snow and ice, pretty heavy Monday night and Tuesday morning. By late Tuesday morning though, it was well above freezing and it was all slush. I drove to town on I-5 and had to take it below 65mph due to heavy rain.
Anyway, due to increased pain the dr. increased my dosage of muscle relaxers. Stupid me, I took 8 total for the day over about a 4 hour period and was very out of it Wednesday. Also increased my breakthrough morphine to double for a week or so. It still isn't enough to help, very hard to sleep, and now my legs are swelling to the point where I've gained 15 lbs. in 24 hours, feel like sausage legs about to pop open.
It's warm this morning! 45 degrees.
That's all for now!
