Well I am really glad that you have them. Whatever it takes is my belief.

pain is odd.
if we took these things without being in pain they would either kill us
or make us go to sleep.
that is what i say about my meds,,,they allow me to function,without them
i cannot.

Betty, I don't think my doc's would let me take 3600 mg's a day. How
long did it take you to get to that amount and can you tell a big difference
with
the bigger number?

I'm with Regina... I do so much better in the heat (actually always
have - even before TM) and the "North Bay Area" has been unseasonably cooler
this whole summer. We've been shrouded in fog nearly every morning with the sun
not burning through 'til noon or after. And anyone who's familiar with our
coastline knows that fog is colder than any cloudy day... it bites right
through you!
Re: meds... I'm on Neurontin (900mg 4x/day) and Hydrocodone APAP 7.5 -
325 (1-2 tabs every 4-6 hrs). It allows me to function pretty well... I can
take care of my daily needs, drive myself (have even driven my teens to sports
meets that were 2+ hours away), run errands and/or shop, and do minor household
chores. I do have trouble standing in one spot for any period of time for such
things as washing dishes or prepping dinner (of course, this has always
bothered me somewhat due to my scoliosis and fused spine).

Please send some of that heat you keep talking about my way. I
am FREEZING!
July was the coolest month since I'm not sure when, but I know
it's been a long time.
Speaking of meds., I only take Neurontin for the pain. I know
Frank doesn't think much of it, but I don't want to take Lyrica and Neurontin
helps a little.
