God, I feel awful. I had sinus surgery (fixed a deviated semptum, cleared out some collapsed sinus areas, did a biopsy on some bone that had grown into one of my cavities, all fun stuff, I assure you). I've heard this takes a while to heal, but geesh.

I'm on oxycodone right now. Was taking 2 pills per dose and am at least down to just one. I hate the stuff. It makes me itch like a mofo. I have to take Zyrtec along with it (24 hour allergy meds that make me tired and sleepy). I also get super nauseated taking painkillers, so there's a pill for that too. And, yeah, that also makes me super tired and groggy.

I feel like all I do is sleep and . . . well . . . sleep some more. I know it's a good thing.

I hate weaning off these meds. I get so cranky and shit. Any advice? I figure I'd start cutting the pills down now. Maybe not half, but 3/4.

stay awake as long as you can, stare at a visualizations like Milkdrop or something. Report on hallucinations.

[Alluveal]

Hahaha. It's so hard to stay awake. I've been in and out all day, dozing off. Having really eff'ed up dreams too.

I'm also craving Chinese food like mad.

Hope you feel better, LuLu.

I'm getting there. Down to half tablets of the oxycodone. God, I hate this stuff. Hate it. I've been trying to eat more protein and less carbs. Drinking a lot of fluids. I have a dull, persistent headache. I know it will get better! I just hate feeling like I'm so drugged up. I can't even enjoy the LOL moments on Fox News.

You poor thing!! I hope you get better quick Allu. That sounds freakin awful. =/
