Friday is certainly a 'turn the corner' day. Not only did I wake up NOT groaning and reaching for my meds, but I didn't take any breakthrough (1/2 Norco) until 2pm. I'm normally taking that very early and usually take 3 or 3 halves each day.
I FORGOT my 3pm dose of oxy until almost 6pm... that is always a great sign when you can forget to take your meds.
Lauren and I toured the old church this morning and spent all afternoon in Rembrandt's house. This museum is a must-see here in Amsterdam. We hope to see the Van Gogh museum tonight. It's open till 10pm.
I should note that even before the t-spine pain started, the museum stroll was very difficult for me. The remnants of my lumbar problems make standing still or slow-strolling very painful. I'm pleased with my tolerance so far. We've seen a lot on this trip! I wish I had more time and energy to process the pictures for posting here.
