Hi booohooo

I sincerely hope that you are feeling as well as you can be today? I am so sorry to read that your oxycodone has stopped working for and I genuinely hope that you can find a replacement pain killer.

I have not personally taken this medication, however, it is a well known (very strong) painkiller and it is not recommended for long term use. Hopefully your GP can come up with something else that will work for you?

I have pasted a link below to patients uk webpage about this drug, I sincerely hope that you find it useful:

I sincerely hope that you find some resolution and relief to this issue as soon as possible.

All my hopes and dreams for you

I try not to depend on the narcotics just for that reason. I am loving the tramadol. It is more powerful then the OTC drugs, but you are not dependent on it. Also, try a anti-inflammatory muscle relaxant (ansaid) that works for you. It helps me immensely....

Morning Boohoo

How are you today? It is pouring here and shivery! Now I moved up from oxycodone and gradually I have reached a cocktail of different pills. We cannot of course tell you what to take so your next step must be a consultation with your GP. I do fond Tegretol a nerve pain blocker extremely use full but your doc will know what you can or cannot take so wait till you see him.

I am waiting for my Grandaughter I think she will possibly be here for the day as she has an ear infection so cannot go to Nursery.

Life gos round and round doesnt it.

I take OxyContin have done for a few years now from the pain team at my local hospital. I take the slow release but in a odd way as prescribed by them instead of 22 hourly which means twice a day I take it 3 times . One in a morning , one at night, and another in the afternoon. That way keeps the dose slightly higher with no withdrawal type stuff, I was put on a dose when I went on it and have managed to stay on the same dose, also tale pregabalin, and amytryptaline as well, works for me . Hope you get some help
