Well, it seems the morphine I have been on is no longer working for me. nor is the slow and quick release so I am graduating to Methadone and Hydromorphone starting 3/9/22. Has a lag time of 5 days possible so might have to do some adjusting which could include a 5 day in-patient stay.
So tonight was a kind of reality check on my part. I have tried to be really brave and ahead of all of this but it really got to me tonight. Why can't I just die? Why does it take so long. Why do you have to go thru all the meds, pains, ups and downs?! I don't like it when I lose control and start crying. I have always been that way, be the strong one. I don't know why I am that way but I have always been. I do cry when my kids and/or loved ones are hurting but a strong upper lip is what I try to be/have. So I needed to just get really down and out and cry it all out of my system and move on.
So, now on the second dose and so far so good. I will continue to do the updates. I hope this does not turn into a tear jerker and more informative.
