Last night I was able to change my bed sheets, make me food, and play with my cat and then swept my kitchen one after the other and I wasn’t in miserable pain!!!!!!!!! Do you know how insane it felt to do that? I cried.

I usually try to change my bed sheets once a month because of the amount of pain it causes me. I hate having to get up from the couch to get food because every single time I stand up it hurts so bad and I’m limping everywhere. I’ve felt like I’ve been neglecting my cat this year because of my pain even though I tried to play with him as much as I could everyday. I tried my best to be able to play with him for 30 minutes a day laying on the ground and doing whatever he wants.

I’ve been on 300mg tramadol for so long and yet I’ve been in so much pain. I noticed a couple hours after I took the Hydrocodone when I stood up to go to the bathroom my entire body wasn’t aching. I was still limping naturally because my hips and legs just get so tight but there was minimal pain!!!!

I can’t believe this. This is all I have wanted. All I’ve wanted was to be able to move around my apartment without dreading every single step I take. I even decided to sweep up my kitchen last night for no reason because I could! I used to do it everyday but then it went to once a week because of how much pain it would cause

Now I don’t know how it’s going to do when I eventually go out and walk around but that will be a situation I address when I decided I want to try going shopping or taking a 40 minute walk. Not just yet though. I will this weekend but I’m going to enjoy my minimal pain as I can currently for the next couple days

That really sucks I’m sorry. Ahah thanks! I’m a very sarcastic person anyway so I thought it was fitting with my personality

Mine translates to „post birth abortion“. Well, sarcasm is a language I speak fluently. Nice to meet you, mate.
