no more narcotics? That's freaking awesome!!!
That's amazing! I'm still on pain meds. Don't know if I will ever be off. That is so cool!!!!! Patience, patience, I remember it took a long time, and I'm still healing. This is special time, time to heal, time to take it easy, time to have other people do stuff for you. You go girl! Don't get discouraged, I was in such a fog for the first week, my boyfriend said it was scary to see me.
