Steve, glad to hear things are progressing well. Are both of your breaks unsupported now?
Good luck with therapy, I hope all continues to go well.

That would require a combination of 40 oz. and some of the "oxy" from the Doc.

Ive been walking without the cast on my foot for over two weeks now, it gets tired but Im walking ok now, without a limp most of the time. Today I had the wrist support off all day, i shouldn't have it off this soon but I figure it will allow me to work the wrist more than with it on. Its really weak and stiff but Im sure it will get better over time,

The 40oz's worked well, I tried the oxy for the first day and didn't like it at all, I was staggering around and felt really buzzed, but still felt all the pain. I switched to tylonal #3's and they worked a lot better, I only needed them the first 2-3 days and then it was fine.

For me it was the same untill I had a 32 oz Guinness Extra Stout after 2 Oxy's. After that I'm not sure if it didn't hurt or I didn't care, but I knew better than to try it on a regular basis. That's why I still have some. . . (they scare me just a little) :-)

Don't know what oxy dizzy is, but when I took it, I felt like I was going to drop dead. It wasn't a good feeling and I'll never take it again.

"Oxy Dizzy" for me means, the oxycodone by itself was about like taking an aspirin. Mix 2 of them with a couple of shots of my favorite beverage and they knock me out for 4 hours but made me dizzy.
