I haven't taken them since January. Then again, in a sense I felt like I didn't need to take them.

Yeah, taken mine. Had a phonecall with my doctor, my actual assigned GP, the one who owns the practice and he overruled that control freak bitch with the sand up her ass, and gave me some more pain meds this  week, and wasn't stingy as hell either. Didn't overdo it, and I could  still use more to get complete relief, but he actually gave me enough morphine sulfate as well as IR oxycodone capsules to really take the edge off the infection of my foot, to the point I can lie down comfortably on the sofa stretched out with my foot held in place by pillows without feeling like my foot was being torched and burnt alive slowly. Plus some dressings and additional antiseizure med coverage because  of the increased stress of this shit, and a strong broad-spectrum antibiotic.

Draining the wound helped a lot too, he didn't do that and seemed pretty shocked for some reason that I managed it with a penknife blade (I didn't mention the corkscrew bit though, coated in benzocaine, he would have fucking freaked a shitfit if I had :autism:). Let a lot of pressure off, where there is very little space to accommodate inflammation, and that helped dramatically too.

About to change dressings, and put a proper one on, rather than the wrapping of clean bog roll I had been using for an improvised dressing whilst I neither had any and couldn't go out to get any either.

(unused bog roll obviously. :autism:)

Hey...I wonder...maybe that little nancy boy pussy failtroll (you know the one I mean :P) could finally get It's wish and end/clean the earth of It's miserable existence. Since he's so used to wallowing around in his own faecal matter already, he should just cut himself all over and strap on bandages that he's first wrapped round his shitspeak hole-in-the-face and used for a diaper, so It can die the death natural for something of that caliber, at home, covered in It's own shit and piss dying of septic shock.

Sort of. Part way through  it.

Morphine-check for the higher of the two dose units, haven't bothered with the lower and  I CBF with those either, they are only really good for if  I run a  little low, then I can use  a lot of the really small ones to make up a days  dose or so, if something goes wrong, like my puking after taking them, best suited for when morphine is needed  for  some sort of experiment really such as my really interesting encounter with alpha-chloromorphide (its said, in the tiny amount of data relating to in living creatures  assays, to be  an analgesic, but it turns out to be nothing you'd think of as opioid-like, and is actually, it seems, a weird psychostimulant, and at excess doses I think, a convulsant, so I stopped the trials after a certain dose. Interesting though, like  no conventional stimulant I've ever tried, nothing like say, methylphenidate, cocaine, amphetamine, different from strychnine-like compounds in low doses also, quite strange stuff), seizure med, check, oxy-half done, the rest I've not got to and some of them I  don't need atm.

I can't remember the last time I took my morning meds.  I definitely need to get better at taking them.

The PR has been taking hers, but not at the right time.

On days I sleep in, I end up taking my meds late. This morning is one such morning but I took them as soon as I got up. If it gets past 12 noon I'll mark that as a missed dose.

Some of them. Morphine, oxy(codone), antibiotics, chlormethiazole. Probably should take some clonidine and tizanidine. Might take the pramipexole. Haven't decided yet. And I definitely need to take my cimetidine (stomach med, or one of  them, at least)

Not without my knowledge and I don't take them without being coerced. I don't do this voluntarily.

I'm just waiting for an prescription to be faxed through to a local pharmacy, after getting off the phone in a conversation with my doctor. He's writing me up some additional morphine 30mg capsules and oxy  10mg caps, because of  my foot still being a  total bastard. Should be ready at about 5-6pm. Will send my old man out to pick them up (I still can't put any weight on my leg)
