My next dose is at 9pm, and tomorrow is my son's 14th birthday, so I've got a cake to make and laundry to be done and UGH!

I'm in a small rural town and no way contact the doc until Monday- don't want to violate m pain contract but don't want to ruin my boy's b-day being in agony all day and unable to do anything with or for him either...

Does anyone know how particular doctors can be about pain contracts? Especially when they've just begun? If I take my hydrocodone as needed for BT pain over the weekend and am totally honest with the dr on Monday about it, is this going to screw everything up??? I've tried everything I can think of to avoid it, but can't stand this pain, and the only other option is to look up the dr's home address and number, which seems really desperate and ridiculous in a way, but what else is a girl to do?
HELP!
I respect pain contracts but I would not spend the weekend in pain when I had my pain meds in the house and a childs birthday to plan. Maybe you can take the hydrocodone and tell him the truth when you see him. Good Luck to you.... Linda
