I know you are grateful that you live in Nashville and have access to a conglomerate of health care resources. I want to tell you how much I understand your fear about being on a day or weekend when your physician isn't available. I turned in a request for my monthly medication refills last week (When my doctor was in the office) They were not done and this week my doctor is on vacation. Most of these are mail order medications. They are my pain management medications. Finally the nurse called and said they were ready. When I arrived, they had written scripts for the list I didn't need. (Every month I write a summary letter for my doctor so she knows what is going on, the results of my journals, food diary, my functional status as it relates to my disability.) So, it is of course after 5pm and I have no scripts. I told them to have another doctor write the scripts. To my horror they refused. They said I needed to go to a pain management doctor. I told them those were their recommendations. AAAGHH!!! Well, in an effort to stay focused in the positive, I took some deep breathes, meditated, did some reflexology to my hand to get my back to quit hurting. I was doing well. I would be willing to do whatever I had to do to wait until my doctor returned from vacation. Later when I returned home I called Tull. I was proud because I wasn't having a pity party, I refused to play the victim. I discussed my feeling and fears I had during that experience. I really felt like a slave to the narcotics. It isn't so much that I wanted the medication to take, I had a fear of being in intractable pain and having to go deal with the emergency room. I told Tull I was glad to have a new program of healing and was looking forward to seeing Dr. Mercola. But I was having trouble staying focused in the moment. Tull in a moment of clarity said " Well, it looks like the universe is talking to you. It heard your desire for alternative healing, and now has given you this opportunity " The power of positive belief is an integral component of my new program. So, it will be interesting. I am not completely out of my pain medication, but I definitely am not able to continue my protocol. Please pray, meditate, or visualize or use any other tool that is in your vocabulary and believe that I will not experience any pain more than I can effectively manage with alternative techniques. Here is a start. When you read this, read it out loud. You deserve everything you hear yourself say. I believe that clearing my body of drugs will clear my mind and senses. I see myself thinking clearly, being alert, participating in the world around me. I see my body well nourished and hydrated. I see with focused vision. I feel calm, comfortable, and restful. I am at peace with myself and the people in my life. I am part of the harmonious whole. I am that person God intended me to be. I can connect to that part of myself that has a memory to return to wellness. I am able and willing to go to a new level of healing. Every person that touches my life is highly evolved on a healing pathway. I affirm health. I affirm well being. I am open to the divine light. My body has all it needs to heal and be free of pain. I release all shame, blame, guilt, anger, sadness, and fear. I declare for myself and each and every person in my life in my life; peace, joy, security, harmony, love for the self, and the willingness to love others. All is well in my world. All is well in your world. Thanks. Karyn , RN Founder / Executive Director http://www.pancassociation.org 1- / KarynWms@...
