I hear that comment a lot, the bit about "not wanting to give up who you are." I have to admit in most cases I don't understand it. (With frontal lobatomy type surgeries I understand) but small amounts of medication, for example: headache pills or powders, there is no effect on the mental processes at all, simply the inflamed tissues are calmed. If my back is sore I'll put an Ice pack and/or a heating pad on it to relax the muscles. And I might take a tylanol as well or instead depending on wheather I have the time for set down. You know enough about researching medications to know if the drug the Docs are prescribing for you are psyche-altering monstersin a gel-cap, or merely something to calm the over active synapses firing wildly in your brain.
