Guest guest Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 Hi Jena, Sorry to hear your mom also has fibro. A good friend of mine as well as my neighbor both have fibro and hate to see them suffer. They gae your mom oxycontin? My dr had wante dto put me on that long ago but i said i just cant gt on that med. I have heard too much and dont want to risk it-especially since almost everything they give me makes me sick or something:( Sorry to hear she was completely out of it. I was in that spot a yr or so after i was first hurt and dx with RSD. They had me on 4600mg of neurontin plus a bunch of other things. I was such a mess and like a zombie- my husband called the dr and said we need to see u asap. Sorry to hear your daughter has been depressed. hopefully there is a program she can get into so she can socialize and get together with others. It is sad when school is done- even though we hate it when we are in sometimes lol Take care ok and keep me posted on how your doing:) > > , my Mama has Fibro and her Dr put her on the oyxcotin and my > Mama was completely in left field but could realize it.
