I was going to cut back on the oxy more today - most of yesterday I took one at a time and only doubled once in the middle of the night when I was hurting from trying to turn on my side.

But this morning started out with some stressful stuff that had to be taken care - and has yet to be resolved. I had to sit at the desk for a couple of hours and that wore me out. I'm only up now since I needed lunch. Other than that, the pain level is not too bad.

Tomorrow, I will try half tabs every six hours. Though I have to supervise my husband making pecan pies so I have to be awake enough for that.

I'm spending most of my time in the lift recliner, zoning out with Midsommer Murders at night and watching old TV series during the day.

Thanks!
