I’m about to jump into bed and get some sleep, but I just wanted to note I had my first day without having to take any of the big pills today. In fact, I only took two ibuprofen all day, and that was to deal with a slight headache and not at all tooth pain related. Even that horrible itchy feeling in my jaw has simmered down quite a bit!

I’m quite excited about this. I was so tired of feeling messed up in the head all the time from those pills. I actually felt somewhat normal today. Feeling normal felt good.
