Re: back from er sigh.....



thanks, you guys. surgeon's appmt. is at 2pm today. nervous about a
general ortho surgeon, who isn't a hand specialist. oxycotin does not work
as well for me as the percocet i received at the hospital. pharmacist
subbed it for the percocet 'script and told me it was the same thing. not
working the same for some reason, not helping. couldn't rest. bummer.
