definite " no " ? Thank you to whomever can answer soon.

Re: Re: GOOD NEWS FROM VICTORIA - OT

Dear -

Wise woman to " follow doctor's orders. " You know how many of us question

our LOs docs " now and again, " but in this case the couch does sound like

the right place to stay. Do know how many prayers, thoughts, good vibes,

etc. are coming your way!

Peace and an uneventful (and as soon as can be) recovery,

Lin

Just an update... I'm still on the bloody couch. I was hoping to get

into work on Wed. then Thursday. Gave up thinking I'd get in there

Friday... The pain is worse now and after speaking with the doctor he

says that it's normal. The additional pain is in the calf/shin area,

but on the front -- like a bad bruise on my bone. Normal. Which means

that it's more difficult for me to get to the bathroom than it was at

the beginning of the week - and I should have been taking the meds as

listed: one every 6 hours. Mon. & Tues. was taking only when the pain

was really bad - one every 12 hours. And now the pain took over.. Since

yesterday back to one every 6 hours. I asked if it's normal that I'm

not back to work yet and the doctor confirmed YES that it was major

surgery w/ the bone graft and that I need to take the time to heal.

Killing me though - want so much to go back to work - have been doing

some tasks via computer from home. So not totally useless. And it also

pays to have an understanding employer. So I'll continue to be the good

patient and stay on my couch all weekend, take the pain pills as

directed, and do my exercises. Almost fainted when we removed the

dressing - it didn't look that bad at all actually - but I have such a

weak stomach - my fiance thought it was quite comical though, my

reaction.

Norma: I typed it in " Search " and came up with the

drug (it is spelled Vistaril there). You might do

that, as there's lots of information. What is it

being prescribed for?
