Since I found an in town doctor to prescribe pain meds and Soma, my wife now knows. I didn't tell her when I was using online medicine, but she started wondering when I stopped complaining about my back. I figured the in town doc legitimized it enough, so now she knows I'm taking hydro and Soma regularly. It feels much better that way, and she is much more accepting of it now that I am self employed and she knows I have to keep chugging along all day, every day, 12-16 hours a day.
