Ugh. No sleep until 7 am. [View all]

I guess I can't take these pain pills anymore for my back pain.

Had the hiccups all night. All night! Also had trouble swallowing, and my face was beet red. I tried all of the remedies for hiccups, but nothing worked. They seem to be gone now, and my skin tone is back to normal.

I looked it up, and it looks like those are possible reactions to opiates.

That's why I hate opiates. I always get some weird reaction. Some of that reaction may also be due to the Prednisone. Both the opiates and the Prednisone should be mostly out of my system by now.

Fortunately, the pain is a little better this morning. I'm crossing all my fingers hoping this will get better, so I can get some work done.
