I kept all my painkillers - I have the entire morphine family, plus patches. I have a low pain threshhold but I don't think that because of that that I should consider myself a whiner! We are all different. Good thing - or life would be just too boring!

Follow the pain Patty. Get down to the bottom of what is causing it. Pain is your body's way of telling you something isn't right. Keep after the root cause.

Sure hope you are feeling better soon. Be clear with your doctor - no brave face. He/she needs to know.
