Guest guest Posted January 8, 2002 Report Share Posted January 8, 2002 Hi everyone, For the last several years 've had pretty severe neck pain from anauto accident and it just got to the point I couldn't stand it anymore. They did x rays and said it looks like quite a bit of arthritis and I'm still waiting for results of MRI. I asked my ortho for pain pills and explained to him about the Hep C and not wanting too much tylenol, etc. First he gave me Ultracet which had 325 mg of actemino phen but I need 2 to get rid of pain so he said he write something stronger, I figured he just increase the dose but he switched me to propoxaphene (Darvon) which has 600 mg of acetaminophen. On days it's bad I need to take 3 04 pills over te day. Is this just too much tylenol? And if it is wat is a good pain med for us heppers. I'm hoping to get referred to a pain clinic where I have other options that pain pills for relief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
