Update

I am still doing well and on day 70 without Oxy's and 2-3 weeks off bupe. I am able to work long hours, sleep well, eat well, and deal with daily stress in a positive fashion. I have seen many different experiences here in regards to bupe, and comming off pain pills. I felt hopless 70 days ago,and now my life is grand. The pain and sacrifice to get to where I am now was nothing like the pain and suffering another 70 days of drugging would have brought. Thats all for now folks, I have to get my rump back to work.

A big thanks to those who have wished me well. This internet thing is not my gig, I am a touchy feely kind of a guy, but it put a smile on my face to see words of incouragement from people I have never met. I wish you all the best of luck with your journeys wherever they may take you.

That's awesome--whether its here on these forums or meetings you meet people who understand.

The hardest thing in my life was finally giving up trying to explain my disease to family friends etc.

They just do not understand.

Keep up the good work.
