Yeah...it's a challenge being a pain med user and having a spouse who is as straight as an arrow, and is loathe to even use asprin, as I mentioned earlier. I am using a lot less now since she found out, but as it turns out, I'm in A LOT more pain as well. I'll take the improved marriage and three Norco a day over a foundering marriage and six Norco a day. I think as long as she sees me trying to tough it out, she doesn't mind so much as when I was medicating a lot to stay totally pain free. Like I said...definitely worth it.
