True, Joanne, but sometimes we sleep to escape from the pain. Chronic,
intractible pain can make the "big sleep" sometimes seem like a viable
alternative. It does mess with your head, no doubt.
How's it going with the cochlear implant? After listening to MY Alex (3)
play a "Buggles" CD 197,384,656 times, I'd gladly give you my set--big ears
and all!

Subject: Re: My Mom, my physiatrist in Ottawa
This has been an enlightening discussion to read. My
take of pain meds is that they should make pain
bearable enough that you can continue to function. One
of the things that scares me when I read Jenn's posts
is the fact that it sounds like she spends an awful
lot of time sleeping off the meds. That can't be good
and all that inactivity can't help with the spastcity
either.
