Need Prayer-Just Had Surgery

I am an alcoholic in recovery. I am asking for prayer from people in recovery. I had a problem with Percocet, which was legitimately prescribed for herniated discs. So, I found a Suboxone psychiatrist, covered by my insurance, and have been on that for six weeks. He told me I can take Ultram, while on Suboxone. I am extremely tempted to go off it, and ask the surgeon for Percocet again, because of the pain. The Ultram is barely taking the edge off it. Please pray for me to be strong and not give into the temptation to go back on a drug I know I already have a problem with.

Thanks,
Trish

I pray for you that you will be healed.

If you need Percocet then call the psychiatrist and ask them if you can ask for it.

My surgery was in October, and the psychiatrist told me flat out I could not go back on any opiates while on the Suboxone.

Trish, I am praying for you. I am praying for your pain to lessen. Every prayer counts. I am just one person, but I prayed for you, and I talk to Jesus. You keep praying too. He hears you. It is hard to be patient I know, especially with pain. If there is one thing that Jesus understands, it is pain. He went through the worst. I had a kidney stone once, and had to talk to Jesus about it when I wasn't really a strong Christian. He helped anyway. Talk to Him when you are feeling tempted to take that drug. It's just like you did with alcohol...it's just a temptation. You know that even when it seems like you can't do it, He gives you a way out of temptation. That's in the Bible. Great job with the alcohol!!! WOW! I'm proud of you. I've been free for 10 years now from alcohol, and it only gets easier, believe me. Stay strong.

I wish you well and hope you recover at lightning speed. hugs, mandy

Got it. Is the Suboxone helping with the pain?

I pray your old life doesn't rear its ugly head.
