Guest guest Posted March 17, 2004 Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 Hi again TJ, If this will help, below is a narcotics equivalance converter. May this will help you see which med you should be on. Cindylouwho http://www.medcalc.com/narcotics.html Less strength? I think that's the most important thing. Sounds like yours is rx'd to take as needed, which, as I understand it, defeates the purpose. Hugs, 1 tablet definitely three times a day but if needed then two tablets three times a day at 10 mg........ of Methadone and the Lortab- are 1 tablet four times as needed for pain to go along with the Methadone..... Basically he took me off the stronger ,,,,90 mg avinza and put me on a strong acting vicodin is what you are saying? If so- I will definitely stop before I start..... because that would be just ridiculous with the amount of pain iim having. --------------------------------------------------------------------- " Are you still wasting your time with spam?...

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2004 Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 Thanks Cindy- :-) But I cant prescribe them to myself- I am beginning to feel used here- I mean- if I were a doctor and a patient could barely move- etc........... I just cant imagine taking the patient off the higher medication and putting her oon something with even less strength - that makes no sense to me........ I'd prefer to just pretend Im not ill- forget this housebound bull, hop in a car, and drive again ------- whether i can guage pressure on the gas pedal or not and go get a job- even if its flippiig burgers- then that way, they can all find another patient to play with. Why bother and put myself through this with him or any other doctor ? Im tired of it all........... Whiskey may do the trick moreso anyhow :0 --------------------------------------------------------------------- " Are you still wasting your time with spam?... There is a solution!
