Avatar n tn Does anyone have any suggestions on how to cope with the lag time between changing doses and feeling better? My duaghter is at the end of her rope and mine is getting pretty short too.Thanks!
Avatar f tn Gotta say, day 5 is worse than ANY of the previous 4 days combined. Thought it would be smooth sailing after the not too bad day 3 and 4. Wasn't expecting this. Thank God I didn't have to start the new job today.... I did have to go in there to complete all of the new hire paperwork and let me tell you, I could hardly fill out the required information!!!! I am hoping tomorrow will be a better day. Off to pace the house all night... grant me a little sleep already!
Avatar n tn There was 2 teenagers died this week after an oxycodone OD. 15 yrs old each. Such a waste. I wish everyone on here the best of luck and thanks for everything. Yall was alot of help during the first week especially.
Avatar f tn Mom of sons here. Some boys stink. I am hyper aware and my boys shower daily and I enforce the deodorant rule. They only get stinky occasionally. But some boys do stink on a regular basis. I'm not sure why. Do they shower regularly and use soap? Deodorant? Clean clothes? Clean sheets? Stay on top of hygiene and smell will be greatly reduced.

Avatar f tn I had my gallbladder removed Wednesday and have been on Oxycodone since Wednesday night. For some reason it started affecting my sleep yesterday. I tried laying down for a nap but could not sleep. I slept an hour or two last night. When I try to go to sleep my thoughts start racing and I just cant sleep. I really could use some sleep. Help.
537731 tn?1268265286 Anyway Dr gives me a medicine i inject B12 weird-and gives me talwin nx- for pain to take with my oxycodone to help my pain more and tells me if i go to pain clinic and the call him he will prescribe what they say. I am confused this talwin has naloxone in it- i am about to research it but i believe that is what they use to reverse overdose effects.
Avatar m tn s of muscle while simultaneously losing body fat makes these compounds desirable to teenagers. If school actually taught us WHY and HOW drugs affect our bodies teenagers would be less likely to take them.
Avatar f tn Sorry I missed one part of your question. Backhurtz is correct that the doctor is giving you dilaudid to take instead of the Oxycodone. That being said, you might want to call and ask what he or she wants you to do if they were not clear about it. Most times when I change meds my doctor gives me a written plan that entails reducing the drug I was on while at the same time increasing the drug he now wants me to take until I am completely switched over to the new drug.
Avatar f tn Read all sleeping aids, block the whole brain process of dopamine and the seretonin. Also pain in chest while lying down and breath right. Scared the hell outta me. Dam!! Hate this!
Avatar f tn ve suffered with chronic fatigue for the last 20 years, spent thousands on pills and potions but then I started having back pain and was given oxycodone. However this seems to help my fatigue and can be like a normal human with energy. I've had very bad days with oxycodone so wanted to know if there's something similar that I could take without having to use oxycodone? Or is it the oxycodone that's giving me the energy.
Avatar n tn just the opiate and some other minor additives. For me there is no differnce between a 10mg oxycodone or a 10/500mg percocet even though they are both oxycodone. So yeah.... a 5/500mg vicoden is probably down on the list where an 80mg oxycodone is at the top. It also depends on how many are prescribed at whatever time interval because most addicts do not stick to their presctiption such as myself.
Avatar f tn I wonder if a semi synthetic pill like oxycodone, instead of codeine and morphine would be a better euphoriant for the dysphoria I feel inside from hurting piercings. Also I wonder if the poppy seed tea is adding to the hemorrhaging because of excess body fluids being pressurized into my body for later expelling. I bet a semi synthetic like oxycodone would be the best, maybe oxymorphone? Maybe if I make the poppy seed tea into a resin to take as a pill, that might help.
Avatar m tn cant obtain gabapentin anymore and would like to transfer to oxycodone 120mg daily as a substitute for buprenorphine and gabapentin.I would like to know is such change possible.
Avatar m tn Not sure if you are talking about oxycontin or oxycodone pills in various mixes and forms. Either way, oxycontin and percoccet have the narcotic oxycodone in it. Oxycontin is pure oxycodone in a time release form while percoccet is a mix of oxycodone and another OTC pain reliever. Oxycodone is a stronger narcotic then the narcotic in vicodin which is hydrocodone. Both will cause WD. The WD from oxycodone was always much worse for me then hydrocodone but some say it's the same.
1706331 tn?1307708067 www.iwannaknow.org has terrific info on std's, pregnancy prevention and condom use for teenagers. it's probably worthwhile to not only look over the site to see what questions teenagers have about it all but also very informative. also the cdc's website has terrific and up to date info on all std's too. way more updated than what any textbook will tell too. the way you phrased your questions were like someone looking for answers to homework hence my post.
Avatar f tn Here recently my back pain has been so severe I cant walk or get out of bed. My OB doctor prescribed me Tylenol With Codiene 30 mg tablets and than Oxycodone 5 mg tablets. I took my Tylenol with Codiene 30mg tablets for my pain because I couldn't sleep. Than 45 minutes later I took my oxycodone 5mg tablets. I had forgot I took my Tylenol with Codiene prior to taking my oxycodone. Will taking both of them harm my baby?? I'm in nervous wreck.
1144050 tn?1261292610 Hi everyone!! I'm about 6 wks. pregnant and I'm taking 15 mg oxycodone 4 times a day for arthritis in my back and knees. I wanted to know on that amount everyday will it cause birth defects or harm to my baby in anyway??? I read on Safe Fetus.com that it just sucreets into your breast milk but that it has no adverse affects on the fetus is this true??? Any help would be appreciated, I'm a new mommy and I'm worried if I might be hurting my baby!!
Avatar f tn On 10/13, I had total knee replacement. They put me on lots of pain meds including morphine, percocet and oxycontin. I am home and have to go to PT twice weekly which is quite painful. I went to my surgeon on 11/2 and he said to wean off of oxycontin and oxycodone. He didn't explain how to go about that. My husband cut the oxycontin in half and I took that once at night and once in the morning for 3 days.
Avatar f tn I've noticed that there are some teenagers who seem to lack compassion for others. It doesn't seem to matter if the teenager comes from a wealthy, poor, Christian, Jewish, or whatever type of home. No home seems immune from this. I once worked in a nursing home and saw teenage nurse’s aides treating the patients very rough. I don't think they cared about these people who could have been their grandparents.
Avatar m tn About a week ago I had to get an alcohol injection in my foot for a nerve (neuroma), and have to go get another one on Thursday. I have also been given oxycodone for an injury I recently had. I know that you cannot drink alcohol and take pain killers, but is this the same thing? Will the injection / pain killer interact with each other?

Avatar f tn My legs give about at least twice everyday, and my parents are buying me a wheelchair. My hands turn blue and I lose control of them mostly during stress and temperature changes. I get short of breath, and I have trouble concentrating, and I have memory loss or brain fog. I get headaches,nausea,lightheaded, dizzy, and I tend to go cross eyed. How can I have a normal life with dysautonomia?
