It's surreal. Sadly the only thing helping her sleep is smoking pot and while i do not condone it nor do i agree with it, she is in a ton of pain.

Bridget, i hope you get better.. i hate seeing ANYONE in pain like that.
Thanks darlin. The hardest part is with chronic pain you get fatigue. I HATE not having the energy like I used to have. Im gonna bring up the patch thing, Im tired of pills.

My sister was on Dilaudid at one time I took a couple of her pills to try it out, it didnt help at all.

I hope with the patches it will reduce my tinnitus too, being on Ultram makes it LOUD and its harder for me to hear people, it sucks.

Thanks again sugar pea!
