Been 32 days. I am off morphine. At least I don't miss it one bit. But I picked up a nasty cold/flu from our grandson and it gave my wife and I, and our 31 year old daughter lung infections. I have NEVER heard of that in my life.
Anyway, I went into my Chronic Bronchitis Mode and wound up sick again. Grrrrrrrr.
My Pain Med doctor is a good guy, but his staff is terrible. I tried to make an appt with him - again and was told he only sees new patients.
I detoxed on my own. I was told it can take as long as 60-90 days to get all of it out of our systems, so maybe I am premature to say I have detoxed.
My back pain is not as bad as a few years ago, but I am being VERY careful not to do anything to hurt it.
If I learned anything from this, it would be to ask the Pain Med doctor, going in, if he will supervise your detox. I am zero for two doctors locally. The first said he did not know how to detox me, so I started this on my own. I guess I will finish it on my own too.
Enough whining, better days ahead.....
