26. I am so sorry

Wed May 29, 2024, 07:28 PM

May 2024

I have a bad, bad back several surgeries etc.

Now it is my shoulder.
If it had not been memorial day weekend, I would have gone to the ER.
I, too, took leftover pain meds.
I'm sure my levels of Tylenol Arthritis is measurable in my blood at this point.
Earliest Dr appt is the 11th.
I may not make it till then.
