Last Saturday was my 2nd induction treatment of ketamine. This time, the provider pumped me up to 90mg, I could tell a difference from last time. The whole pain free feeling it’s just unexplainable. Seeing how I’ve been in writhing agony since the implant fuck up. I’ve experienced pain before, who hasn’t. But this shit… Continue reading Some Sort of Progress

After yesterday’s revelation of the Rifampin bullshit, I slept almost 8 hours. I woke up at around 2am. Popped a dilaudid and transferred this husk into the bedroom. I’m tired. Just pain pain pain everywhere I turn. Chronic pain is a fucking curse. I wouldn’t wish this upon anyone. It would be so much easier… Continue reading Something I’ve Missed

Welp. A small Google search yielded some eye opening shit. Rifampin reduces the serum levels of dilaudid and Ambien. That’s why I never pee hot at pain management. And also why I can’t fucking sleep. I’m stopping it immediately.

Today started off ok. Anies was home before her trip. So we planned to tag team infectious disease today. But that was short lived. Around 10, I got a call saying that the Dr had a “family emergency” and that I needed to reschedule for tomorrow. Not thinking straight I just said ok. That’s when… Continue reading Day of Frustration and Ignorance

Little bit of writers block this week. Just haven’t had anything noteworthy to write about. I finished up my last Dr visit last week with my GP filling out my STD extension paperwork. Originally I was supposed to return at the end of this week, but I made the call to extend. Why? Well. Shit… Continue reading Escaping the Cycle

This whole not sleeping thing is getting old. I can’t shut off the pain out of my brain anymore. Wife gives me face rubs. A lot. Everytime she does it I can find calm for about an hour. Half the time, she puts me out. I was hoping for that tonight, but it didn’t happen.… Continue reading Wide Awake

Today I called into Klarisana if they received the paperwork from Prism, and as expected, pain management signed off on the use in their care. Thank. Fucking. God. But I was running behind and had to call back later. I must have hit every stop light, person that couldn’t drive, and traffic to infectious disease.… Continue reading Ketamine Update and etc.

What the actual fuck is going on? Another one….. I have a feeling this isn’t the last one.

K. Today sucked. It’s also Aggies birthday. Which didn’t help things either. I woke up at 4am in the worst pain in my mouth and in my sinuses. The sinus part has been slowly getting worse over the past few weeks. The usual stinging burning can’t breathe feeling. I took a dilaudid and went back… Continue reading Not a Fun Day

Woke up this morning at 6:30 to a crapton of pain again. This has worn out it’s welcome. 100%. As I tried to get everything under control, I started writing a list of things for Dr Lupo to discuss today. Lupo is the one who owns the ear issues. He’s the one that did the… Continue reading Not Your Typical Monday
