I really hope you guys are feeling better soon. I definitely know what it's like to have depression and the sudden inability to move. Though mine is because I'm less than 4 weeks post op. which does raise a question. As far as sleeping pills when needed, can we take any? I'm talking OTC, not prescription. Like, does Tylenol pm work for us if we need it? Or would it be a better bet to get an rx?
Regardless, I do hope things improve for you quickly. Like someone else said, I hate knowing someone do nice and helpful is suffering. And you both (Kelly & Lora) have been huge help for me. I'll be thinking of you while I lay here wide awake listening to my fiancé snore and making me all sorts of jealous. :)

Please note: I AM NOT A DOCTOR. If you want medical advice, talk to your doctor. Whatever I post, there is probably some surgeon or other health care provider somewhere that disagrees with me. If you want to know what your surgeon thinks, then ask him or her. Check out my blog.

Wow! If I had know there were so many awake last night I would have stopped tossing and turning and we could have all chatted here! Kelly, I am in the same boat as you this week. I am depressed over an ER trip for back pain in which I found I may need surgery for. Going today to a chiropractor, calling for PT, and pain management. We'll see what happens with all that before I have the nerve conduction tests for preop.
Anyway, took Vicodin didn't help, gonna ask for sleeping pills today and hope I will make it to work Wednesday.
