Thanks guys for taking up the slack on the plumbing page while I was recuperating from surgery. What I thought would be a simple biopsy "morphed" into a surgical procedure when they cut out a "precancerous mass" at the base of my tongue. This meant that ALL my food would have to be liquid but also had to take hydrocodone for the pain.
Since I'm no downer freak, ( couldn't you tell by my nick?) I have no tolerance whatsoever for it and it made me "loopy" as hell.
I cut way back on it yesterday and am only taking it when it hurts me too much to swallow. And I seem to be developing a tolerance for it that removes the pain but still allows me to function without a vacant smile and even more vacant answers. As I regain my strength I will be going back and reviewing what I've missed in the way of posts. You all have done a great job and I can't thank you enough. Thanks again, Tom
