One gave me demerol (sp?) because she said she felt sorry for me (after a c-section). She was super lucky the next day, once I was over the reaction, that the pain from my c kept me from jumping her. Seriously. Another gave me vicodin (sp? again), told me it was just a tylenol, and then was the one chosen to hold the pans as I vomited myself into a bad case of dry heaves. Makes me itch so insanely bad I'll scratch the skin right off my forearms and stomach, too. <br /><br />Most just think I'm a recovering addict. :(Rannihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11046114473667464704noreply@blogger.com
