Doctor Visit :) More good News!

Yesterday I visited my favorite doctor, Dr. Kent. She was astounded at my progress over a two week period. Yeah! She suggested that I try weaning off the morphine now; so I will go from 3 pills to 2 pills a day for a few days. Then, if I feel good then I can go to 1 pill for 3-4 days, and if ok then I will stop taking the morphine. If I have breakthrough pain, she wants me to try vicodine first before going back to the morphine. It's all just a bit scary because I don't know what my body is really feeling because the morphine has been disguising the pain, and at the same time, I will be increasing my activity level. Just keep praying that all will go smoothly. My next appointment with her is the first week of February, and if things are looking good....she said we could "discuss" my return to work. No promises...but I am hoping!
