Guest guest Posted June 9, 2003 Report Share Posted June 9, 2003 For those ladies suffereing in pain I am not embarassed to say I took pain meds when I was hurting. I found that if I told the Dr I had terrible pain and the only thing that worked was a narcotic they were pretty easy to get. I took vicodin for about a year, but it was very addictive for me, gave me energy though and made things better, helped me get my life and keep it. Then I went off that and got on Oxycontin, what an amazing drug. The drawbacks were constipation but it worked well and only a small dose like 20 mg twice a day so it was easy to get off it as well, not too many withdrawls. The opiates are probably the safest ones to take other than addiction problems and constipation because of the fact that they don't make you gain weight, and the side effects are few. They are morphine derivitaves, so I figure they are made from a plan ha ha, well the vicodin is synthetic but it worked. Hey I guess when you are in too much pain to move it is worth it. I know that Daryl takes the patches, the fentanyl pathces, I have never tried them but hear good things about these as well. Ladies if your suffering don't ! hugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
