March 2018 Update

Things have been really hard on my whole family for the past few years. I let my blog go for a while.

Today would be my mother-in-law's 48th birthday if she had lived. It's a hard day for us. Today, I got an email from Disqus to moderate a comment. It was just someone telling me that they liked my blog, but it was really sweetand well timed.

I have had an intrathecal pump since January 18, 2016 and my myPTM was activated about a year ago.
My intrathecal morphine peaked at
9.99mg/day basal
0.4mg/bolus over 1minute
Lockout 30 minutes
DRI 2/1hr
Max 6/day

I had them decrease the basal by just over 0.5mg per day due to side effects.

My wife has had a lot of complications since getting her pump February 28, 2017 that I'll try to get everyone up to date on. I've also considered switching to a vlog, but I'm not sure.
