And I must have come off as a "I'll power through it" type martyr to the nurse on Saturday as well, because she went to great pains to tell me story after horror story of women who tried to suffer through it and ended up, like, calling an ambulance because they thought they were dying. I was like dude! I believe you! I will medicate!!<br /><br />...on the other hand, I usually react RULL poorly to narcotic meds (dizziness, nausea, meth-addict-like itching all over my body) so I will admit I'm loathe to use them unless absolutely necessary. I did ask for Percocet specifically because I know I hate how I feel on Vicodin, but... I'm still hesitant to take the Percs in case I react similarly to them too. <br /><br />That said, I promise I will take them if it becomes necessary! I really am just sore, rather than in acute pain.

I am reading along with my eyeballs about 4 inches from the computer screen.<br /><br />I do feel as if 7 is LUCKIER than other numbers of embryos!<br /><br />I feel the urge to push you to take the Percocet, but only if you need/want a little pushing: that is, what's it to me if you take the painkillers or not? Nothing. But sometimes people feel as if they ought to woman up and not take things that can make them feel better. Like, the pharmacist told me that Tylenol PM is the best invention ever because people don't like to admit to the weakness of needing sleeping pills but they WILL take Tylenol and oh look this is just Tylenol I take at bedtime, so that product flies off the shelves even though it means people take MORE products rather than FEWER. Where was I? Oh yes: that doctors are TIGHT about narcotic prescriptions, so if they didn't feel your level of discomfort FULLY JUSTIFIED it, they wouldn't give it to you. And I say, if it helps you feel better, do take it. DO. Even if it's just kind of fun to take it. But not if you prefer not to, if you see what I mean.Swistlehttp://www.swistle.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13000256.post-73237584182054347742015-11-23T12:07:06.801-05:002015-11-23T12:07:06.801-05:00Seven is a good number, isn't it?
