Today it is FOUR weeks without TN meds! I'm pretty confident that they must be out of my system by now. It looks like the operation was a complete success!!! What a relief! It's still hard to be too excited, since the future is unknown and there are no guarantees. And you don't forget the fear of the pain. But hopefully in time I won't think about it much.

Yes, I think there will always be some sensitive places. I still have some numbness from years ago but that's almost all gone and doesn't bother me.

Wow, 24 inches of snow! That's a lot. We have had plenty, though not that much. The cold has really bothered me this year, but each year I learn to dress better for it. This year I've added a lap robe/afghan in the car, which helps.

You are down to 6 pills now (plus Tegretol)? I hope it is going well! Keep me posted.
