Guest guest Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 i've been on narcotics for sometime now with no real relief, just the edge taken off, which is still no way to live, and i'm drugged all the time, so tired, lethargic . . . what are these chills i keep hearing about -- what do you all think causes these? hugs,~ linDUHlou ~RTHR/1/22/2007 Thanks, ! I'm feeling good about it now. I just wonder what it will feel like a year from now and the year after that. I went through what you did, though I'm 56 -- not nearly as young as you. (Keeping up with a little one must have been a challenge. I at least had my 20s, 30s and part of the 40s before this began. Still, when the doctor called me in April and said it was either narcotics or replacement surgery, I sat down and bawled my eyes out. I was surprised at my grief. As with you, it had moved very quickly. The year before, the doc thought I had at least a few years yet. But it only took me an afternoon to decide to move forward. I don't regret the surgery in the least. The hips are next. Now I'm reading all the postings by you experienced hippies out there!
