Health Organization for Pudendal Education

I have nothing interesting at all to report, but just a quick hello to everyone. Been on a bit of a technology diet, so haven't been on the site much. Just tried to catch up - send my best to you all. More later,
Cora

Hi Cora,
Welcome back! How are you feeling these days?
Warm regards,
Karyn

Doing pretty ok. I just followed up on the long thread on Nortryptiline. Great discussion. Has me wondering if you should make the switch. Doing pretty well on current meds,but again, ambivalent about being on narcs forever. But all in all, good pain management, some not so great side effects... in the middle of a Cymbalta taper and may just try tapering the Kadian and try the Nortryptiline. Can always go back if not well managed. So, pretty much same ole' same ole . How are you doing Karyn ?

Hi Cora,
I'm so very happy to hear you found a pain management person you're comfortable with! I think that's half the battle! I understand how you feel about the side effects. I'm also one of those who's extremely sensative to meds. I wish you the best with tapering off the Cymbalta! I'm very excited for you! What is Kadian? I don't think I've ever heard of it before.
I'm recovering from bilateral TG surgery and doing pretty well! The surgery was a week ago today, so I have some pretty significant incison/surgical pain, but that's about it. I stopped taking the hydromorphone yesterday morning and have been managing on ibuprofen. So far, so good!
With love,
Karyn

Hi Cora,

Glad to see you around these parts again. I'm not much of a dieter, but I know I would REALLY fail at a technology diet
