| Insomnia Score | Sleep Quality Assessment at the beginning and end of the study and the difference will be used to assess any change. Sleep Quality Assessment is based on The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), an effective clinical tool to assess sleep quality and efficiency. It differentiates "poor" from "good" sleep quality by measuring seven areas (components): subjective sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep duration, habitual sleep efficiency, sleep disturbances, use of sleeping medications, and daytime dysfunction over the last month. Scores for each question range from 0 to 3, with higher scores indicating more acute sleep disturbances The sum of the scores of the seven components is used to compute the global sleep quality score, ranging in value from 0 to 21. A score of 0 indicates no sleep difficulties, while more-severe sleep difficulties correspond to higher values for the global and component scores. | 4 weeks |
| Narcotic use reduction | Using Prescription Drug Monitoring Program at the beginning and end of the study to asses any change in medication. The Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP) is an online database that houses prescribing and dispensing data for patients per state. It calculates MME. The total daily morphine milligram equivalents (MME) will be displayed on a patients profile. 0 means no narcotic use and higher values show high narcotic use which is a worse outcome. | 4 weeks |
