Started off with a good sleep until 11:30 pm, pain woke me up, on no. Suzie said earlier I could take 1/2 of my pain pill, so I did, Back to bed tossed and turned until 12:30 more pain. No, I don't want to go back to hospital, so woke her up, She said I could another 1//2 pain pill. Did that and sat at my computer the eventually the pain went away. So back to bed, up at 3:30 no pain yeah! Back to sleep until 4 :30 had some cereal , juice and coffee, no pain compute a bit got tired and back to bed slept well until 6:45. Wow, well rested I got up more coffee and feeling pretty good. No complaints here still no pain!! Not sure how this worked but so glad it did.Now with nothing on the agenda today that is what we will be do nothing, rest, relax and be pain free, feels so good after over 2 weeks of no sleep and too much pain. At least it is sunny only 36F at 7 am but we toasty warm inside here. At noon 53 F and still sunny went outside for a short walkabout then inside to whip lunch, for me a protein bar an ensure did the trick and I made a salmon sandwich for Suzie.
Next about 12:30 thought I would stretch out on the bed for a few minutes that ended up being 2 hours. Wow still feeling pretty good so more relaxing don't wanna push to, rest while I can. Still no pain.
Ross and Rose can home this afternoon and invited us in for Dinner spaghetti squash, one of our favourites, Even though not hungry I went in and joining them for a bit to eat, fading quickly. So back home to wrap up this posting for tonight relax some more, (I and exhausted) Take it easy a nice hot cup of herbal tea, and heading into bed hoping tonight for a pain free one that will provide a good nights sleep.

George hang in there and I hope you are feeling much better tomorrow. I do admire you though for writing the post even when you are not 100% well. You are an inspiration. Keep up your humour.
ReplyDeleteThanks Marlene felling better is my goal and it will happen
DeletePosting the blog gives something use full to do doing the day.
Glad you had a pain free day and got some rest/
ReplyDeleteThanks guys it felt pretty good,
DeleteI've always liked the quote: “The trouble with doing nothing is not knowing when you're finished.” ~Benjamin Franklin. But some days nothing is the best thing! Glad it was a good day, and thanks for keeping us in your thoughts as you are in ours. Salmon sandwich sounds good.
ReplyDeleteYou are right did nit know when I was finished until I fall asleep. It was a good day, I love salmon sandwich just could not eat one today.
DeleteI understand your concern about the pain pills but just for now use them as directed if needed. It is best to try to stay ahead of the pain.
ReplyDeleteThats what I have been doing lately , but only seems to flat up during the night.
DeleteSome pain free time today sounds good. Hope tonight will be better than previous ones. Pain pills were made for a reason, though they do have their down sides, I hope you can use them to your benefit overall....And here's to a good sleep. Worth a lot.
ReplyDeleteYes Judith so far a good sleep until 1;30 , then need another pill. hopefully will kick in and sleep some more.
DeleteThere’s nothing like a good nurse!! Glad you got some pain free rest.
ReplyDeleteSuzie is a great nurse but she is getting tired as well.
DeleteYou are smart by only taking the pain meds when you really need them. Good to hear that a solid rest was the order of the day. Take care!
ReplyDeleteI have had a pretty good day and rest so far need a pill now though.
DeleteGlad you are finally getting the Pain under control.
ReplyDeleteMight be wise to avoid mowing the grass for some time. LOL!
It's about time.
No grass to mow here now at this time of year,,
DeleteGood to hear your day was pain free. And I really hope you have a great nights sleep tonight and a pain free day tomorrow. Rest is good right now. Hang in there
ReplyDeleteIt was a wonderful pain free day to enjoy. A good sleep until1:30 then up for another pain pill. Yes rest sure is good.
DeleteHope tonight is pain free and restful. Be sure to follow the doctors advice and take those pain pills when needed. Take care.
ReplyDeleteNot too bad tonight see if I can get back sleep.
DeleteGlad to learn the pain management is on the upswing. Hope it continues to be so. When you feel a little better, I am hoping that you will give us your first hand impressions of the Canadian health care system since you have recently had several experiences with more to come. As you know, universal health care in the U.S. is currently a big issue.
ReplyDeleteThanks Scott the pain management system is somewhat better, one day I am fine but the nights not so much.
DeleteOur Our Canadian Health care system in my opinion is wonderful, So far no cost to us at all for these ER visits and the specialists I have to see and will be seeing, Plus my operations and hospital stays, cat scans, MRI's and blood work are also covered, and because I am over 65 my drugs are almost free as well I believe our higher taxes. gas, alcohol mainly etc.
Hopefully today is a better day for you and the night time too. So glad you didn't have to go back to the hospital. Love spaghetti squash lasagna, it looked delicious! Enjoy your Sunday :)
ReplyDeleteIt was not a bad night at one point thought about the hospital .go up took a pain pills at the computer for a while pain going away back to bed. We love spaghetti squash in any form and this was wonderful.
DeleteSo sorry to read your previous post. It was nice to read you had a pain free night and day yesterday. Fingers crossed last night was the same.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of layering the spaghetti squash like that. I am going to have to try it.
Continued positive thoughts and prayers coming your way for you and Suzie. Hugs
Thanks Guys right now seems good one day not so good the next.
DeleteThe squash like that does a wonderful meal.
Thank you for the positive thoughts and prayers.
