Well the good news is: I'm gonna get some tramadol.

The bad news is: I think it's just a three-day supply. My doc seemed to want to refer me to the pain clinic for anything more.

Which, I told her, is not a good fit for me: they are pretty insistent on including psychology, which I already have *plenty* of.

I am good at managing my brainspace, even during a pain flare.

This means I could be *teaching* this stuff.
