Hi,

I know! lol, I kind of figured that out afterwards. I thought, gee I know I was on pain meds that day, but I wasn't that loopy! I'm trying to keep people's stories straight. I, like you, usually just have 3 days of crazy, bad pain.

But, I have an ovarian cyst right now that has given me trouble all month! Not too severe, but definately very bothersome. I've been taking about 10 advil a day. My 3 days is coming this week.....I dread it. It makes me feel guilty like I'm being lazy because I have to stay in bed with a heating pad too and it always comes at a time when I have a lot of things I need to get done!

I called my doctor to tell him that I'm going through the pain meds faster than I thought I would but he said, that's fine, just keep me informed on your symptoms and I appreciate your honesty. He is great. I hate that feeling that you're counting pills, hoping not to run out. I can finally take them when I need to and not freak out. You should get something better than Ultram, if you can. I could not feel an oz. of relief when I took those things and they started giving me and ulcer too.

Now, I will remember that you're Lisa H. :) Thanks for listening to me too. It's so helpful and comforting to have this forum. Have a good week. Talk to ya soon.
