I took mine this morning, straight after breakfast. This is unlike yesterday morning when I completely forgot them. Went to college and couldn't work out why I was daydreaming so much when the teacher was talking. Then I realised. Had brought meds with me so took them in the break.

Most of them, no haven't bothered yet. Most are either not time-critical or quite simply not assigned a set time at all and taken as and when the condition/response of my bodily status calls for them to be so.

However I have taken 12mg tizanidine-I think..could have been 8, but I think I've had three pills (4mg each)
Other than that, just a few gabapentin and two doses of morphine. Had one shot very early in the morning, just before to just around first light,  followed by a second around 10-15 minutes ago. The first one made me fall asleep sat on the sofa for several hours, waking up a little before 12, with the laptop still on my lap and my e-cig in my hand still.

Took a couple of pramipexole tablets earlier (0.18mg, purpose-its a dopamine agonist, mainly selective for D3 and the D2Sh and DLh isoforms of the D2 dopamine receptor.

Plus another smaller dose of morphine before I just left to go and deposit some money in my bank.

Yes, well sort of. Converted the last of my morphine to dipropionylmorphine. It works a ton better, increase in strength notwithstanding, and it doesn't wear off for an age, first dose (I've tried it before but not on a full scale) and at about 1am the night before yesterday, it was still going strong at 6pm yesterday!

From morphine itself I'd have gotten about 6 maybe 7 hours pain relief, if I was lucky.

Just took my oxy, gabapentin, clonidine, tizanidine, chlormethiazole and..errr...whats the other one....ah....tizanidine thats it. Didn't bother with GI meds, didn't need them today, and didn't bother taking any morphine either. Saving it for better things.


Edit-oh, forgot, had my pramipexole as well.
