The area formerly known as my boobs hurt. Pity me!

(Also, I'll run out of pain meds right in time for my doctor's appointment, which means I'm going to have to ask for more. Am I the only one who feels really sketchy asking for narcotics? I'm sure if I watched less Intervention, it wouldn't be such an issue.)

  1. Intervention is the best show on A&E. Hoarders is a close second.

  2. Agreed re: Intervention. I love it so hard. I haven't seen Hoarders, though. I'm pretty sure it would make my OCD hurt, and I'd throw away all of our belongings.

  3. Maybe you could make the narcotics go further (or is it farther?) if you rotated some ibuprofen in between the hard hitters? I feel sketchy giving you tips on making your narcotics last. Hang in there - hope each day is better than the last!

  5. Perhaps I should just start by saying, "If you think I need it, I'm willing to accept the gift you're offering and go into treatment today, but mostly my surgical site still hurts really bad."

  6. I'm pretty sure you earned whatever meds you want right now. LOL!!!

    Sorry your chest hurts. I can only imagine. I got tatts on my chest (between the boobs and collar bones) and I whined for a week that it hurt. Can't imagine having surgery there.

  7. Go for the drugs. You earned them.

  8. I felt the same way after my jaw surgery a few years ago. I had to go to the ER because I ran out over a weekend and my Mom was with me because I couldn't talk (jaw surgery and all) and I felt like the doctor thought I was just trying to get drugs.. even though I was banded shut and bruised from the chin to the chest. But it's better to not be in pain!

  9. I'm sorry about the pain:(

    I love watching Intervention though! It makes me feel like an addict too, because I have drawers upon drawers of meds and empties that have all come from different doctors. Someday I'm going to make a Christmas garland out of all my empties.
