Never Ending Foot

Well I had my first Alcohol Injection on Monday and for some reason the pain level just hasn't gone away when it should have. Dr. Collins is out of the Country till Sunday. He is in London so he has no clue what is happening other then Leslie. I called a Dr. Rhodes two days ago and he told me that if the pain keeps going he will prescribe me some more heavy duty pain killers till Collins gets back from London. I guess that is what I will be doing today. The other thing Rhodes said is that he might advise me to stop the injections if they are going to be like this for the remaining 2-3 at most to max of 8. Are we looking at another foot operation? I hope not but, I think it is looking like that. Once Collins gets back into Salt Lake City then, I will be a happy camper once again so he knows what has been happening. So far things have always happened to this foot when he leaves the city for something. Emerson I think is getting tired of seeing me in so much pain. I did venture out yesterday but to a point I think that wasn't wise. Emerson had to get shoes for his job so I had gone with him. Just wearing any shoe on my right foot is killing me. Over the past 24 hours I have a total of eight heavy duty pain killer called Percocet. I have slept more then I have been up. Last night I finally got a blessing to sleep peaceful and I did for so long. I just want this to heal and stop hurting. I would like to get back to a normal life once again.

I hope things are going better with you foot. I know it is scary having to take all those pain killers and worry about getting addicted. We live in such a scary world now but sometimes we need those things to get through life.
