I am down to one last pain pill. I see my doctor in 2 days but the prescription was intended to last for 3 months, not 5 weeks. I have no idea if he will give me any more. So I fret and I worry, and I work myself into a lather.

My head hurts. I have used all my Frova and cannot start my Axert until the ½ life of the Frova has passed (tomorrow). I am facing an evening on the couch on ice. 'Bartender, I'll have a Leslie on the rocks, not shaken, not stirred.'

Many friends in cyberspace are in a similar predicament. We aren't ever going to be cured we are just occasionally treated. I may be addicted to my pain medication. It makes me feel normal. What a high!
