I am having a rough few days. Went off all pain meds due to anxiety attacks, yet they continue. I sobbed for an hour this morning for no real reason. I have pain, but it is not from my knee. My so called good knee has some shooting pains at times and my feet hurt. Usually they don’t but I do have some neuropathy in them, although they improved a lot recently. I cannot take much more of this. I am stir crazy. I was only on tramadol, but even that is an opiate. Less side effects, but still. I just want to be normal. Get out of the house and live a little. Not happening. It’s getting me down. So maybe a bit of depression, but I think not. Really could use some prayers.

Maybe it takes time for those side effects to wear off-stay positive as you can. Cabin fever is enough to give anyone a major anxiety attack-even without meds...

Can you go outdoors at all-even sitting in the back yard in a chair in the nice, fresh air might be helpful...

Prayers sent. Also some advice. Ask about gabapentin for the neuropathy.
