Every time I take a percocet (which works for me), I have to argue with myself to eat it. I feel guilty for "poisoning" my body -- mostly my liver and adrenal and hormone functions -- and want to do damage control by not taking it. But then, another part of me argues I'm doing my body more harm by NOT taking it, and need to give the screaming, angry nerves the relief they are crying out for. OY!!!!

But, just like you, I do the epsom salt baths and they truly are wonderful. Now, if I could only get rid of the guilt of using/wasting so much hot water.......
