I didn't realize how much the narcotics were helping me mentally. I figured since I wasn't in terrible physical pain, I'd stop taking the oxy. That was a bad decision. I'm back on them now. Monday they'll be giving me more drugs anyway for the surgery.
I did my first wheelchair to bed transfer today. Although I was able to do it, it was so much harder than I ever thought it would be.
It's funny. Yesterday I was thinking that this entire thing has been easier than I thought it would be. That was only because of the drugs. Sigh. Take away the drugs and I'm a pathetic mess.
