I am getting ready to leave tomorrow Sunday. I really do not know what to do regarding my pain meds. If I take them, the judge could say that I am not able to testify.Melissa

Melissa.....would you want to travel all those hours in a plane
without having pain medication with you....?
i have not had back surgery and i know how very uncomfortable
air travel can be...
perhaps there is some way to time your medication so you will
not be as sleepy or "out of it" while you have to be in court...
maybe discuss that with your lawyer...? or a doctor before
you leave or on phone while in NJ.
best wishes...

Well, Melissa, you are probably already on your way to NJ. I just want to wish you a good trip and a good outcome on your court stuff.
I hope you are feeling well and endure the flight okay. I'm glad you have hubby along with you!
I'm sure you will be awake enough for the trial. I'm on a boatload of medications and they don't affect me too much anymore, especially if I'm engaged in doing something. I'm sure you'll be fine.
Anyway, I just wanted to wish you a good trip.
Take Care,
Rohrer01Be happy!
We don't know what tomorrow brings,

Thanks for the good wishes
I'm going to assume that you meant that you arrived in NJ at 4:40pm EST, right?
I'm so glad that you and your husband got to have some good Chinese food together!
I'm sure that the trial is over for the day by now. I hope it went well for you and that you are managing your pain.
HUGS,
Rohrer01Be happy!
