Sharon my baby brother has a pacemaker and a defib thing implanted. He had a quadruple by pass years ago. Honestly I don't know how they fit that stuff in a chest . He also has a insulin pump (on outside) but, the site needs to be changed often. Has to check his blood sugar frequently during the day.
Never hear a whimper out of him. He is stoic and a hero of mine.

Yeah, I don't take pain pills unless the pain levels at emergency room level, completely off the chart! When I broke my tibia & fibia, I didn't even realize it, no pain...didn't take any pain medication the whole time it was healing, it took 11 months before I could walk again.
Had all four of my wisdoms remove at once. Never took pain meds then, too! Doc asked me if I wanted them but I told him my pain meds a bottle of Wild Turkey. He didn't think it was funny, told me I better not get dry socket or he'd hurt me the next time! :lau

thats how dad was.... Most he ever took was aspirin.... He used to say pain is in your mind.... His was the same brand I believe .... Though I dont believe there were many bourbons he didnt like there for a while.

He was that way about the cold too or the heat... Guess ist benefits of his daddy being a sharecropper.... Work first comfort later.

And Home remedies.... INcluded Pine Tar Epsom salts and Kerosine...

My granddad did that for a while. It got him chased out of Iowa to S. Dakota. When he promised to straighten out his act, his family let him come back to the family farm in IA. He was a hell-raiser when younger but I think his fiery nature kept him going until he was 92. Loved that guy, best grandpa ever.
