Christine and i sat down and scheduled when i should take analgesics so that they will have taken effect by meal time, and so i keep the coverage pretty constant.

I took a good bit (half) of today off to continue resting. This occurred as web surfing plus loud crying fits.

I think i've crossed into depression as i find "i can't" comes to mind frequently, as well as tallying up my failures. I'll worry about the depression if the pain ever stops.

I saw the doctor. There are a few medications for promoting faster healing of canker sores. http://www.aphthasol.net/about.php is not covered by my insurance, but wasn't too expensive for the teeny tube. It may be a placebo, but damnit, any psychological edge at this point is a win. I'm also taking a B-complex vitamin to go with my GLA plus fish oil and vitamin D. The B-complex is supposed to hold off canker sores. OK, whatever.

It was somewhat disappointing to recognize the stupid flare was ongoing during the time period i was taking the ompalizone or whatever that reflux med is -- because that could be a possible solution.

I watched The Tin Man yesterday: i enjoyed it very much.

Christine: "My wife Job. It's all because i'm an atheist."
Me: "You can't say that. If you're an atheist, it can't be your fault."
Christine: "I meant 'It's all because i'm an atheist, and i'm wrong.'"

She was very happy when she had me and the cats all completely medicated for the evening.
