boodieAs some of you might know, money has been rather tight here the past few months, so that means that I haven't been able to afford the little extras that I normally have on hand, and that includes painkillers.
In my drawer I have a box of NeurofenPlus, it works for most things for me, but because I haven't been able to buy any more, there's only four tablets left.
In the last two months there have been several times when I've been in what I consider extreme amounts of pain, from cramps, bladder infection, etc, but because I know theres only four tablets left, each time I've looked at them and said 'I can't take these, what if I REALLY need them later on, what if there's some really bad pain and I dont have anything to take the edge off'
So that means I have gritted my teeth through pain that I normally would medicate the hell out of, using only a hot water bottle and sheer bloodymindedness, for a WHAT IF and a JUST IN CASE.
Going by that I'll never use those four tablets, because I can always imagine a time when I might have worse pain.
Damn my imagination *grin*
