I've been back to drinking White Russians lately. Not chi chi's but I like this graphic:

Aw, yeah......

[spoiler]I was thinkin' the same thing...but Lucy and Desi did it for years.
And yeah, that was a bit fast...when I ran out of my meds (vicodin included), I thought I'd manage till my next appointment to just see what I still needed. Uh, no....

I hurt so much more than I should/would have ordinarily...I was twitching in my sleep...I threw up acid water! And this from just being on a regular dosage for barely 5 months...with a 'one pill each night' reigime for nearly a year previous. My doctor freaked when I told him what I'd done! I told him how I had to call in for refills, and didn't realize how 'bad' I was (since the pain was sooooooooooooooo much worse). He said, 'oh no, you are not really hurting that bad from the surgery! That was withdrawl you were feeling. Your bones haven't finished knitting together, you still need the pain meds, and when you are ready, we will take you off them slowly!". *whew* So, yeah.[/spoiler]

Self-medication really isn't a good idea, but we do it.

I go back to him today, to read the new set of xrays and the MRI. Of course, a huge 'dip' in the driveway of the cemetary (going to Mom's and Grandpa's grave on Mother's Day), hurt me and the girls...so I'll be seeing him with more pain than ordinary. *sigh*

I gotta remember to ask him about 'lifting limits' and what exercises I can do to rebuild all the muscle I wasn't using for the past nearly 2 years!

[Pearl@32]

Yeah. From what I'm hearing weight training is actually quite helpful with pain, provided you don't go overboard. They say small weights even make a difference. <needs to get back pain resolved>

I've got to go back for another MRI on the neck. The disc above the first surgery site is 'narrow and probably what's causing you pain now'. Lovely.

He said light weights, don't do any heavy lifting, and I'll know if I 'overdid it' the next day. Great.

Take care of you!!!
