5. I've learned to be proactive

I take the laxative WITH the hydrocodone. It works pretty good unless I can't hold down liquids.

But yeah - I quit taking them as soon as possible - still have a few left over from this last surgery.

I had both knees replaced last year - two different procedures; carpal tunnel and ulnar nerve relocation on right side last December; November this year carpal tunnel and ulnar nerve relocation AND arthroplasty on the left thumb. I'm running out of joints to refurbish - I think my hips are next since I've had both shoulders worked on.
