Afternoon treefam. Hugs, prayers, and best wishes for all in need, especially JP an Mrs..
Gonna be a while for the surgery for me as I gotta sell this place before I can get to Orlando. My pain dr does not accept our new insurance, but I was able to get an appointment for tomorrow (gotta pay 100 cash) so he can drug test me and then he can prescribe pain meds for 3 months. Probably would be cheaper if I was a druggy getting em on the streets lol. It's good though cause I want to ask him to write a note in my record for my future pain dr. Kind of sad losing him cause he is one of the best Drs I've ever had.
The movers are coming Friday to give me an estimate(now that's scary stuff). We had to buy a riding mower cause the land at the new house is way too much to use a push mower. Piggy was quite scared but managed to figure it out and mowed the lawn, now she said she loves it. Our mini has decided he has to sit on her lap the while she mows lol, and our rottie followed her around for the whole time. The big boy is loving his huge yard.
Have a great evening treefam

You yanks (no offence) get much better treatment for pain over there, regardless of injury pain relief is literally that, by definition something strong enough to stop the pain you're suffering from.
Over here they dont even like prescribing CODEINE for serious injurys like broken bones etc... Start of January I stubbed my left big toe so hard on the stairs I broke it (im pro like that

, done it 1000 times never actually broke one) this time I did went for x-ray they splintered it up and told me being type 1 diabetic would probably take 6-9 weeks before I was 100% again, I couldnt even walk on it, no crutches and they told me to take paracetamol

mor0ns.
Few years back I got jumped and ended up with a broken nose 6-7 clean hits to the face, i didnt go down but I couldnt let go of the lead of my baby pibbles Luna (blue fawn btw

) who at the time was about 6months old as it was on a main road anyways after taking it to the face like a pro police were called etc, I thought I was alright it didnt even bleed I mean I heard a crunch but it was only a few weeks later that my mrs said my nose was wonky (after all the swelling round my eyes cheekbones and temples went down) weirdly no black eyes at all

.... Anyways I went to have it checked and after going through 2 nurses and a Dr who couldnt "see anything wrong" I managed to see a Canadian rhinoplasty surgeon and within 5 seconds he said it was obvious and pointed out exactly where and what the problem was.
So i went in for day surgery they knocked me out for 15 minutes during that time they stuck a metal rod up my left nostril and shoved it to the outside of my face towards my ear whilst forcing my right nostril in the same direction thus quite nastily rebreaking my nose back into position, they literally shook me awake a few minutes after they did this and I was in quite a bit of pain, no blood waited about 30 seconds... Started bleeding quite a bit, plugged me up with tissue and GAVE me a box of paracetamol

.
Point being I had literally just had my nose professionally broken and they chucked me what you give an 8 year old when they've got the sniffles

.
Awful, i had a splint on my face holding my nose in place for about a month to stop it popping back to the broken position, and I ended up with a black eye lol
....thank God for friends that have old tramadol and codeine lying around that they ONLY use when they need actual pain relief
Paracetamol, ibuprofen, aspirin, diclofenac and naproxen can all do one when you're in ACTUAL pain

.
Needless to say when I suspect I've broken something I dont bother sitting in the hospital for 18 hours to be told "you've broke your ankle"

Erm duuh "thats why its swollen up to the same size as my calf muscle!" which I actually did, I just took it easy "obtained" correct pain relief, self medicated and walked funny for 2 months, ive never had a problem with addiction of that nature as a result.
Well thats probably my longest post and quite a waffle, you're welcome the people that appreciate the read, apologies to the people who couldnt care if they tried lol.
Im off to bed, new job tomorrow wish me luck treefam
Goodnight you lovely lot.
Almost forgot
