Hello all...here's my saga for today, but first the rest of yesterday..
I didn't eat much more yesterday and took a tylenol pm plus 1/2 of a trazdone and finally went to sleep around 9:30. I slept good...
Sunday June 12th...I didn't have restless legs last night but when I woke around 6:30 am, my left thigh and hip felt like it was bashed in- as of right now at 96 HOURS CLEAN, it's still killing me so I put Ben-is-Gay on it (LOL that's what my daugh. as a teen used to call it). Had 3 cups coffee, a banana and a multi vitimin. It's been7 days since I've been out of the house- literally- but this texas heat and humidity won't ever get me out to exercise- besides I can't walk a lot bcasue of my hip replacements, etc. Last thing I need is to have extreme pain in the hip...Speaking of my hip...
The first replacement was in dec. 88 and total revision again in Jan. 99. These hips basically last 10-14 years and I was thinking if I had to have another one, I would come clean with the Ortho doc to tell him no narcotics- although the pain for me goes off the scale.
Gross but true, no BM since thursday- sorry...I haven't eaten a lot but I have eaten. I'm drinking a lot of water all day.
Any 1 who is thinking going cold turkey- it is so dang tough but I believe it's a mind game too. I am a believer that I can do ALL things through Christ that gives me strength- nothing less will do!
BTW, when I woke this morn, first thing that popped in my head is that today, my precious Granddaughter is 4 months old today. I cannot leave the legacy of an addicted "Gammie" (as she will call me when she starts yapping-lol) to her or her Mother (my daugh).
Every 1's words have inspired me, encouraged me....thanks and keep it up because I spend an enormous time on this board AND I need it!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, I forgot to mention the constant sneezing...why does that happen- anyone?
We must be getting old - we're talking about BM's - haha
No, these supplements seemed to be making me constopated (blushing)
So, I'm taking 2-4 Metamusil capsules in the morning - 1st thing with a full glass of tap water and it works it's magic.
It may all be in my mind but I don't have that problem anymore. Boy, that's a switch from the first 5-6 days of no pills.
Now we're officially old.
Love, Jean

Jean,
Well, I AM old- actually a fossil in my daughter's eyes. I can't belive I turned the big 50 last August and now time flies.
I am eating some fiber but still no.....
LOL

Hey tightrope,
Glad to hear that you are getting over the hump, as they say. I don't know what the deal is with the sneezing, but I also had sneezing fits for about two days during wd's. I just thought it was my body trying to figure out what was normal and what wasn't. ya need to start eating some solid food!!! Protien will help bring ballance, coordination and strength back to your body. Eat a good steak....the iron and magnesium in the steak will help you feel better. Some vegans out there may disagree, but man you just can't beat a good steak...
