It's been more than a year since my last post, I kick myself now as I look back through my posts because of my inability to track my progress through the year. But, as much as I hate the saying, it is what it is. Here is what I remember about the last year:
Around May of 2008, I had a pain flare up which was excruciating. It was discovered that I had an ulcer between the toes of my right foot. We treated the pain with Oxycodone which helped.
Overall, I would say I have had a pretty good year as far as pain flare ups. My pain level is up in the last week or so. Mostly I notice my neuropathic tingling is worse. That causes pain on the tops of my feet and up my shins. Pain levels in the 4-6 range while on 200 mg, 3 times a day of Ultram, which now has a side effect of making me anxious. I have trouble sleeping as well. I may try to switch to Oxycodone if my pain level stats where is has been.
That's it for now. Hopefully I will blog more in the near future.
