Fuck it kills me to hear stuff like this. So sorry for your loss.
Thanks...lol...offhand...my BFF of 20 years came to see me and brought ashes from two of our friends(mom, daughter). This silly girl rolled their ashes into a joint and smoked it. That was their wishes, but I’m not doing that...lol.
Crazy. lol Ive heard of people putting ashes in a charm and wearing them but never smoking them. Id try it knowing me. lol
I’ve been prescribed many of those drugs before but luckily I didn’t have pain that didn’t respond. Used to get headaches that lasted for weeks. Glad that’s not a problem anymore.
I feel for you. I hated being in any form of pill to make me feel normal. Hopefully you’ve got a balance now of things that work.
Sauna at 150+ degrees for 30 minutes. I have a breathing tube i installed so i can breath for that long in that heat. Then i jump into the ice bath for a good amount of time. This really helps me more than anything.
I need a heater for mine. I have 2 Hot Water tanks, but I need the heat to last.

LOL...Jeez. I was looking at your tub. I have the same exact one except it has jets. I meant for the tub.
Oh i see for a hot bath? lol Yeah i was confused. Im still in a holding pattern with the sauna. This is just a temp unit. I will build a sweet set up eventually.

After I get my deck rebuilt I plan to have an outdoor sauna built on it. I like the idea of coming out of it and going into the snow.....lol

That would be epic.
I actually have 2 of these watering containers. I was going to use them as planters. Kind of want to build a jacuzzi like this out of one. lol

Lol... is just remember one of them saying that’s what she always wanted. Maybe one day if you’re curious, you’ll let me tell you about her. Westside Colorado Springs is wild.

I get that...
I hope I don’t offended with comment, but it kinda reminds me of people who cut or cause other physical harm to themselves, something to feel, push you past the point of thinking, and just reacting to physical stimulation.

Totally lol Is that the Cheyenne area?
No. that’s south west, I’m talking more like 8th Street into Old Colorado City and Manitou Springs. Basically due west. Garden of the Gods was my playground growing up.

I have my own way of coping that way.
Haha yeah i can see that. Total diversion from other issues. Pain or mental. My X Wife was a cutter. I thought it was sexy. lol
For me this is about breathing. Its about using my mind to slow my heart rate. I used to have what is known as a metronomic heart rate. No matter the stress i could keep it under 130. And for operators its really important. I was broke during my training for the Navy. They broke me. They taught me how to overcome extreme heat and cold. And obviously other variables that can increase heart rate and fight or flight. So this is easy for me.
And meditational. Totally understand your take on it....but in this case its more about quieting myself. Sweating out the demons so to speak.
I usually take 1,000 units of hydrocodone before retiring. It helps with my back pain while I try to sleep. Usually good for at least 3- hours. I wake up adjust myself to alleviate some of the pain and often go back to sleep. Until the next time anyway. Sometimes I get up and post in here. Why you sometimes see me in here between 1:00 am and 4:00am.
Haven't looked into it. Any thing going on with mixing hydrocodone and gabapentin?
Wellshit, it says mixing gabapentin, hydrocodone and alcohol can cause repiratory problems and death. Why doesn't it work on me?
Im assuming you mean 10MG Vicodin. And yes lol absolutely Gabapentin is increasing the effects of the Vicodin and anything else you are taking.
Obviously the alcohol mixing is a common no no. But most dont know that the Gabapentin is likely the bad guy in this situation. But both that and Vicodin shut down the GI and cause all sorts of other issues with your brain and thoughts. You are on fucking drugs and alcohol man. Erratic behavior and thought is gonna happen.
Here is the good thing blue..you are willing to listen to us. We are calling you out on this and you are open to change and support. Thats cool. I have always wanted members here to rally around each other. No matter politics. Faith. Thought. Belief. Just Aloha mate.
You should look in Ketamine injections. My buddy is level 10 pain all day every day. Doesnt want to take his life. Doesnt want to take 10 opiates a day. Had been just treating it with medical MJ but he was still miserable. I dont know much about it but i know guys with PTSD are getting great results. And guys with PTSD and pain? Its a savior.
I just dont know shit about it. And im scared of things that are not grown out of the earth. I dont trust doctors. I dont trust big pharma. Obvioulsy so much good comes out of the medical and pill industry so i wont focus on the small amount of BS and throw it all out. But im more comfortable long term just using nature to heal me.
I haven't taken the really good stuff since I left Rehabilitation Hospital of Indiana. Used to take those little orange things 6 at a time. Lying flat on my back rather than angled caused a lot of pain.
Let me try to be a bit more accurate. (For you and Lo) I take two 600 mg pills of gabapentin when I wake up in the morning, then and addition 4-5 as the day wears on. I save the 5-325 Acetaminophins for bedtime and usually take two along with a couple of 10 mg. melatonins which usually allow me to sleep for 3-4 hours before waking. I try changing position to alleviate the pain and that usually works for another two hours or so, rinse and repeat. Sometimes I take more melatonin in the night.
Usually drink about 4-5 oz of vodka each evening beginning around 5:00 pm. Don't drink very fast. Might be 6;30 when I am done. But this calms everything down and eventually makes me tired enough to pass out about 9:30. Who's getting old?

Well ill start off by saying it bums me out you have to be going through this. That sounds like hell.
Max daily is 3600MG of Gabapentin. Be careful you are right there. And its not exactly free of shitty side effects.
I figured the Vicodin was likely 2 5's. The 325 makes me think its Norco. With your age and other substances like Alcohol i would probably look into asking your doctor to get the Ibuprofen version.
Vodka and Hydro will kill your liver. Blue thanks for showing me what perseverance looks like.

Not really that impressed with myself. There are basically two ways to go. My real issues began in April of 2017. Your wounds are older, I believe. And I also think from time to time what you are going through and the fact that these injuries came in the service of our country.
I will tell you something about pain though. I have NEVER before or since felt the kind of pain I suffered when I got that tear in my aorta. I know it doesn't make sense than an internal organ can cause pain that intense, but believe me when I say I thought it was a punishment from God--or the Devil.

My brother just had a valve replaced in his heart. He said he was in a good amount of pain as well. So i understand.
My pain is just a haunting. I dont fight it. I live with it. I embrace it. And do my best to love all through it.

Found out last night that my wife hasn't been taking her gabapentin. Found 5 prescription bottles full of it.

Im not surprised as you said she seemed to be doing very well. I think its a bad medication. lol Especially for people like she and i. Who are likely very similar.
Tell her that. Tell her she is like a fucking superhero. lol
Seriously i say this to everyone here who fights the good fight. You are not broken. You are courage. So many of us shouldnt be around. But we fight. I would like to do so going forward in the most loving way i can. And stop taking out my battle on others

Lol, I won't tell her that, it'll go straight to her head. Of course, I have to take her in tomorrow for a cardiac stress test, she is also facing surgeries on her hand and elbow (i told the doctor it's probably from all those handies she gives out at the movie theater, doc laughed, she didn't find it funny. Lol)

LOL. I read that as handles at first. I thought she was actually a waitress at a movie theater. We have those here. Dont we call large drinks handles? My drinking game isnt great.
If she can get by not taking that stuff its probably for the best. I didnt last long on it. You take my ability to shit and sleep away and im not cool. lol
