the Aleve works!!!

At least so far. Apparently it's not good for migraines, which was what made me think it didn't work at all several years ago, but it's *excellent* on cramps. And it lasts *12 hours*!!!!!

Also, the Prilosec I've started taking to protect my stomach lining from the NSAIDs per the nurse is also helping with the nausea, without the loopiness side effect the anti-nausea med gave me. That and eating less at a time but more frequently.

Here's hoping this state of things lasts longer than the last round of "making Meg comfortable" meds did. It's been very hard emotionally to realize that hospice's concept of comfortable is a lot more realistic and pragmatic than mine was.

Oh, and morphine (for breakthrough back pain) *must* be taken with a Miralax chaser. 'Nuff said.

I know, I heard it used as a kid, so at least 50+ years old.

Let me know when it materializes [g].
