And I am thinking about giving another try to reducing my pain meds, to see where I stand. I think I should try to do this sometime soon. I have to do it slowly though.
I am wondering if it would be a good idea to consult with Dr. Bertagnoli. I have read a lot of good things about him, and the outcome of his patients, for the most part. I wish the value of the US dollar weren't so low right now.
