I am taking Neurotin, 900 mgs, 200 mgs Celebrex, 100 mgs Trazadone, very
helpful sleeping, and 10 mgs oxycontin 3 times aday. I am to the point
now where I am ready to forget it all. I at least would have thought my
gyn who told me that is time to go back in, and now the are too scared,
and I do understand that, but I am the one who feels the pain, and I am
the one taking the chance! We love you Helen!
