Re: My medicine that temporarily takes away misophonia

[Guest guest]

I've been on every pain medicine out there (almost) from Tramadol to Vicodin to Tylenol 4 to Oxycodone to Fentanyl. None have had that effect for me. I'm currently on hydrocodone (vicodin) 10/500 mg (8 a day) and it hasn't changed anything relating to my sound sensitivity issues.

I'm interested to know the correlation between the medicine that helps me and the actual cause or root of the misophonia. I'm hoping let all of you know may open up a conversation with your pdoc or atleast help us draw a clue from it. The first thing I'll say is that my sister had severe misophonia and she was constantly on prescription pain medication to be around the family. I now know why. I found out accidentally when I was prescribed vicodin for my wisdom teeth removal that magically the noises weren't producing the trigger response. I lost my visual trigger as well. I spoke with my pdoc and even though it's off label she agreed to continue prescribing for my misophonia. I continue to take it and have done so the last year and i feel so much better, sometimes I can forget An

About misophonia for a moment or feel like I'm almost cured however in the absence of the medication Im reminded that I am in no way cured. However my extreme coping methods are completely gone because I know the medicine is there. No more echoing the trigger or scratching into my arm to offset the pain. Please keep in mind that with medicines there is always a risk especially with prescription pain medicine. Has anyone else had this experience or have a theory on why the pain medicine works? Im open to any and all feedback. Ps if you have yahoo messenger I cam be reached on lalaxox

I have Xanax bc I think my central nervous system plays a part.   It doesnt make it totally go away, but it lessens the aggitation.  I normally do not have pain, its more severe aggitation.

I have the same response to alcohol – the misophinia completely disappears. So frustrating, as I cannot be drunk or on painkillers 24/7. Johanna

Exactly.... Your nervous system is less reactive, so your exaggerated reaction

disappears as well. I still hear my boyfriend sniffling while I have a glass of

wine in me, but it doesn't get me all enraged, it becomes background noise.

I tried marijuana for migraines. It helped with pain and nausea as well as

sensory triggers. Unfortunately it also made me so stupid and useless, I could

only use it when I was trying to fall asleep and didn't need to be anywhere the

next morning.

But I've since heard there are different strains that offer different kinds of

relief for different kinds of symptoms, and that they don't all have the

" stupid " effect. And there are non-smoking options.

Could this be a potential area of research?

Xanax helps, although it is not a panacea. I find a drink or two helps its

effectiveness.

[Guest guest]

HI ShroomwellI discovered the same thing with the combination of anti-depressants and alcohol. Unfortunately, then the alcohol became a problem for me, as in beginning to turn into an addition. And alcohol as an addiction, for me actually ended up worsening the misophonia even more in the long run.So then I had to give alcohol up altogether, there was no choice in the matter, so I haven't a drink for 9 years now, which is unfortunate because I had enjoyed the alcohol when I was drinking in moderation . It wasn't hard to give up, because the addition had only just started.I am sorry if I sound preachy here, just thought I would share my own experience. I am not against

drinking, not at all, I don't have a problem being around other people who drink. I just can't allow it for myself anymore.mk

Xanax helps, although it is not a panacea. I find a drink or two helps its effectiveness.
