Guest guest Posted March 17, 2004 Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 I disagree, I was on oxycontin over five years 480mg dailly plus, plus. When my doctor dropped me I went along on extra meds a while then went thru 3 months of the worst withdrawals from the additioin, it was worse than anything you have even seen on TV, I am afraid of anything narcodic at all, my pain has shot my perfect blood pressure thru the roof and I am severly depressed from the pain and still from the oxycontin and the memories that I will never recover. Yes I was happier, in a heck of a lot less pain but I still had bad days. But I was in a stupor. I lost everything becuase of this drug, including my daughters love, my small families love and support after over 9 years total it gets old. The vicodin is also addictive but not like oxycontin. And I don't suggest the slow release morphine. I speak from a great deal of experience, 22 procedures (surgeries, tests, spinal, on and on and on and 8 surgeries. I am stage II RSD w/fibromyalgia, MFS and I am even afraid to take the vicodin. I was given the vicodin w/o asprin or tylenol and it doesn't work. But good luck check around before you get in to deep on the meds. I am on 8 non narcodic drugs alone just for the central nervous system, it doensn't just go away. Peace, hope, faith, happiness and Bless you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
