Playing on Prescription Meds
So I just got out of the hospital today after an 18-day stay. Long story short I had a very bad infection that started in my throat and made its way into the tissues surrounding my lungs. I had to have surgery and lots of antibiotics, but am now recovering at home.
The issue at hand then is what to do about poker playing while I am on prescription pain medication (oxycodone, the heavy stuff). The drugs definitely effect my mind, I'm not like drunk or anything, or really looped up, but I'm certainly not quite as sharp as normal.
This makes me a little hesitant to be playing cards online. On the other hand, I was beating up on the NL 200 games at Party playing 3 or 4 full-tables pretty hard during my summer break before I got sick. Also, I'm gonna be having all sorts of free time of sitting on my ass in the weeks ahead.
So what do you guys think? Should I playing poker at all while on the drugs, and if so how should I maybe go about approaching it?
