pain level is back up

Starting last Saturday, my pain level had increased to 7 and unmedicated has remained around 7.

I saw Dr. Schakel on Wednesday and the current plan is to stay on a low level base of 15 mg MS Contin BID (twice daily) and 5-10 mg daily of Oxycodone if the pain is still unmanageable. This is quite a bit less then I had been taking last fall. We will see if this will be enough to keep me walking and active.

I see Dr. Schakel in 3 weeks for a reassessment.
