I am having probably the hardest day I've had since my surgery. I could not wake up on time at all today. I managed to wake up at about 2:00pm and my whole body felt like it was on fire. It is an all consuming burning feeling literally. I called my surgeon. I will see him today at 12:00pm. He told me to increase the pain meds until I feel comfortable. i think he is going to start me back on the Morphine again which I' not thrilled about but I need to do what I need to do. I am NOT going to play any games with this at all. I've been through to much already. I will not go through it again needlessly. I'm not that stupid. He told me that what's happening is that the nerves and muscles I've not been using for over a year are starting to come "regenerate" and that's what's causing the burning. I guess that it is a good sign but it hurts like mad.I'm completely stoned and I'm still in pain. That's crazy. He told me to expect it and to expect more days like this in the near future. He even told me not to be surprised if I am re-admitted from time to time because of it. He said that if I want all I have to do is call and I'm in; no questions asked. I'll be admitted on the spot.!!!!! What they did to me is truly "CUTTING EDGE" Science. I am probably in the top 10 people in the US that has had this surgery done. What I'm asking is that I :"know" where my strength lies, In JESUS Christ Almighty.!!!!!! Sometimes I just need an extra hand staying focused on Him.Now is one of those times. So please say some prayers that Jesus gives me the strength to make it through this bump in the road to recovery.Thanks very much. PEACE:RONB
