TAKE CONTROL TODAYHi, I just had surgery two weeks ago, I am still recovering & am having alot of headaches, worse than when I was in the hospital, I am taking the required/suggested amount allowed to take to help w/ the pain. The pain killers are supposed to last four hrs but they only last 2 1/2 hrs maximum, the doctors said to follow the instructions. I am conteplating taking them when the pain start again but the provided medication don't have an allowance for refills. I've never felt pain like this, it hurts so bad that am in tears, friends & family all state they believe I'm having migraines. I've never had migrane headaches before, the pain level for my headaches when asked average at an 8 after two hrs after taking the suggested meds. I urrently look like Mike Tyson just beat the hell out of me (I am currently swollen on left side of my head & face & have a black eye). My wife, mother & doctor all agreed that I have high pain tolerence prior to my surgery but obviously not now. What I would like is suggestions from someobody who has had the surgery & what I can do & how long will this problem/issue last for them please reply ASAP. Thanks!

Greetings From Blessing.
My name is Blessing from Republic of Sudan. Presently in Dakar Senegal 24 years of age.
I am so decided to extend my felicitations to you. Presently i can not really specify what prompted my drive to write but i did have the mind that you could be a nice person. I have the interest to meet people from out side my continent and felicitate. It is my believe that there are nice people out there who can appreciate the values of friendship. Personal I might not be very beautiful physically like most ladies in your country but I think I have the beauty of the mind, which is more valuable to me.
Please write me if you can. I am single and focus. I wouldn’t say i am good but will leave that to you to find out with time. As allowing others to access you is a humble act...Hope to receive a message from you. It will be very much appreciated getting to know you much better and share our experience and good wills about our respective continents.
I will send you my photo in my next reply. I will appreciate as well if you send yours to me in your next mail. With due respect i ask, do tell me some briefs about you. Your love life, what you do appreciate in a woman in general and your dislikes. Lest I forget I am not a white lady rather simply colored and wish you do not mind as I have the concept that we all are the same irrespective of our colors. The inner person to me is most important, friendships to me is a right of all humans and if properly inclined could add to once happiness.
