Regardless, if you're crazy itchy see if they'll give you somethin else?
Glad the surgery went ok!!
Hil, I would not be able to teach in a 90 degree classroom. It would give me a migraine.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

I get mad-itchy with Vicodin, but the oxycodone they gave me for the kidney stones don't make me itch -- or nauseated.
Call your surgeon STAT and explain the sitch. There are LOTS of people who can't tolerate the -dones. There's got to be something!

Maybe tramadol (brand name Ultram, I think).

Hil, you should make one of these: [link]
Turns a 5-gallon bucket into an ice air conditioner. Cheap. Find a quiet fan, make almost no noise. Aim it at front of class for you. And ya might find more students sitting up close, instead of in the back of the class.

Ugh erin, best of luck sorting out the pain relief! Glad the surgery went well.

And I'm the opposite of Steph--percoset makes me horribly ill, whereas vicodin is my friend!

I was just about to complain that I have no customers at the library bookstore and that the stock was completely picked over by the big sale last weekend when I found a nice stack of books I want, including a like new copy of Scalzi's The Human Division.

Heh, going through my old meds bottles I was so displeased with tramadol that I wrote " Pukey and itchy " in sharpie on the label. Heh, third time on the phone w dr office today and they are not loving me. Also because I keep nagging about my FMLA paperwork which apparently the surgeon hasn't even seen or signed yet??? Um, I've already missed two days of work! For something that was planned and scheduled in advance! No excuses, sign the stupid form and fax it my hr before I get in serious trouble!

Erin, keep being as much of a pain as you can until you get what you need wrt pain management and paperwork. That's just ridiculous.

And why is this my third time on the phone? First time after holding for 45 minutes I gave up and took the option to leave a message and have someone call me back....then I called again several hours later and was told that they are having phone problems and not getting messages. So....just brainstorming a. Little here...how bout answering the phones and not directing patients to leave voicemail when you know that option doesn't work??? I can mostly handle the itchiness during the day, heck, it's far better than the pain, but suspect my recovery would be better if I could sleep....
