I pray every day that as the weight comes off, the pain gets better, but I have to deal with the reality that it might not. Losing weight will only help me be lighter so I can deal with the pain better. Eating a high fiber diet isn't enough to help me. I've reduced my oxycontin from 8 10mg pills a day down to 2 a day. I'm in pain about 10/14 waking hours a day with only taking two and still have to use a mild laxative twice a week. (Yes my nighttime meds 50mg nortrillen REALLY knocks me out for 10 hours and I was always a very light sleeper.) They're thinking forced sleep might help me deal with the pain better but it really just pisses me off to lose so much of my day.
