oxycontin

Avatar f tn With that being said, my family member decided to get off the pain pills and has been able to so far control her pain with diet and exercise. She lost a lot of weight, began eating healthy and exercising. How old are you? How progressed is your disease? If you do decide to quit, I urge you to get with your pain management doctor to devise a taper plan and possibly try some non narcotic things to keep your pain under control.
Avatar f tn I quit a 260 mg/day oxy habit and you can do it too. Just come back and post and let us all know whats going on. The more info you give us the better advice we can give you.
Avatar m tn My brother is 23, he has been addicted to oxycontin for 3 years. He recently was arrested and charged with poss. of a controlled substance with intent to manufacturer, deliver or sell. He had a large amount of oxycontin in his car and was not selling it. I'm his sister (25) and i bailed him out of jail. He has come to live with me. I want him to get sober, The charges are likely to be dropped because the cop broke his wrist while the police video SHOWS he is not resisting arrest at all.
Avatar n tn Take me to a island, I panicked so bad I told them my husband was coming to surprise them, I said I needed to meet him and my kids for coffee, I had a cleaner call my husband, tell him to come asap. I thought they killed the guy next to me, convinced husband and daughter, but they said he just was moved. no morphine is not my friend.
Avatar f tn m supposed to. Went back to sleep and woke up to take my break through and accidently broke the 40 mg. and took that. Now what's going to happen? I'm scared to death. I always take my medication appropriately. This is the first time I've messed up. (My pain doc won't be in until Tuesday.) What should I expect in doing this? I have a high tolerance. Before they switched me to the oxycontin the other day I was taking 45 mg. oxycodone every 3 to 4 hours.
Avatar f tn I'm also drinkin my first cup of coffee in about 3 yrs and plan on goin out later to buy a coffee maker. Haha ... the only thing I've taken these past 3 days is tylenol, too scared to take a bunch of stuff and possibly get hooked on something else. I should mention , I also kicked the habit in Feb of 06 and started using again in Jun of 06. Yea not too long sober =( this time I vow to stay sober 4 life!
Avatar f tn About 7 years ago, I was attacked by a customer at work (at a famous coffee company that shall remain nameless lol), and have had chronic back pain since. Then, 2-3 years ago, I fell down some stairs, and now I have sciatica in my left leg. Yay clumsiness! So, I have a couple of herniated discs, some arthritis, plus which, the sciatica. Six years ago, I decided to try pain management.
Avatar m tn The hospital staff said I neede to stop all blood thinnig drugs (aspirin, fish oil, advil, etc) but did not say anything about pain mends (Oxycontin 4mg 2x day and Norco for the breakthrough pain (10 - 50 mg per day depending) Can I take the pain meds right up to the surgery?
5312547 tn?1367094865 t as strong and also has acetominophen in it so make sure not to take Tylenol in any other form. Oxycodone and OxyContin are essentially the same drug and have no Tylenol in them. OxyContin is a time relealse and is usually taken twice a day. Usuallymanother med is given for breakthrough pain. All of these drugs will case physical dependence and in some people can lead to addiction.
Avatar n tn I have had quite a bit of pain in my eye and was prescribed oxy 5 mgs. i just started withdrawling from these pills and was wondering if there was anything i could do to ease the restless legs. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Avatar f tn m right and these headaches are being caused by the analgesics the only solution I see here is to somehow wean totally off the oxycontin. The bone and muscle pain is unbearable and I cannot walk without the oxycontin but the headaches incapacitate me too. I don't want to simply exist. I want to participate in life.
Avatar n tn The other day he was here and at about 5p.m. he sat in a chair and feel asleep and could not keep his eyes open at all....a couple of hours later we woke him to eat some dinner...he had a couple of bites and then bent over and held his sides like his stomach was hurting him and then needed a blanket because he said he was cold.
Avatar f tn 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. When I thought about the next steps to get off the oxycodone, I thought to call the pharmacy for advice.
5789554 tn?1391017083 One regular excedrine has a safe amount of caffeine. They wanted to give me vicodine and oxycontin for the headaches but I said no thanks. So I researched and found excedrine was ok.
356518 tn?1322263642 I have to be honest with you I have not taken pure oxycontin, however I have taken percocet 7.5/350 and have not had to return to my dr. Now maybe it is different for pure oxycontin. Now my dr is putting my on Kadian and I don't really feel that I will have problems getting it. Now that is my dr.
1171003 tn?1267072103 First of all Congratulations on such an amazing academic accomplishment in the midst of all of this. BUT and this is a HUGE BUT you are potentially ruining your health. Your adrenals can't take this stress. If you have not done so already with the energy drinks, stress from all the hard work and the mix of medications. I would strongly agree with you about not believing that you have FMS. It's hard to tell what you have with all that is going on in your life and body.
Avatar m tn Accidentally overdosed on oxycontin. Was in alot of pain and took too many. Coming down from the high dose to my usual dose was horrendous. It was a week from hell. Had alot of anxiety, restlessness and agitation. Also was vomiting alot. Having a bad urinary infection didnt help matters. Couldn't sit still. Had to be on the move all the time. Couldn't eat, sleep. bath, shave or brush my teeth. Wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
Avatar f tn I take the meds for real pain, and ran out of the percocet, because I try not to take as much oxycontin, becuase it makes me tired and gives me a headache. Any ideas?
2991133 tn?1340046931 my doc has me on Xanax 1mg and Oxycontin 30mg. every once in a while, I will take a pain pill then shortly there after I am having an anxiety attack. will it hurt to take both of my meds close together? this doesn't happen often. when I was on Oxycontin 15mg it didn't bother me.
Avatar f tn I know I shouldn't have coffee, but sometimes I crave it and my doctor says it's okay. I enjoy creamer in it as well. Is creamer ok to put in my morning coffee? Or should it just drink isn't black when a craving occurs?
12365171 tn?1424880667 Hi, I am 37 years old and just heard the baby's heart beat today! So exciting. Is it true that one cup of coffee in the morning is okay? I've heard it is and that's all I've been having, but my friend who meant well said that I should just switch to decaf. I probably will skip the cup if it's that big of a deal. Not sure, just wanted to ask other women my age. This is my first child. I'm taking progesterone to keep my levels up. Anyone else?
Avatar f tn I have an anxiety disorder and coffee triggers panic attacks. Drink lots of water and try to take deep, slow breaths.
7913733 tn?1407585433 Coffee and caffeine have nothing to do with giving birth or what happens during
Avatar f tn s a bit silly and if I had around 6/7 cups a day that would do no harm at all, just curious as to why tea and coffee seems to be limited in the things I read compared to what my doc has told me
Avatar m tn s generally no reason you should stop drinking coffee. That said, coffee, even decaf, does tend to weaken the LES. (Caffeine is a heavy contributor to this, though not the sole contributor.) Recommendation: Avoid caffeinated coffee. Otherwise you should be fine. Wait a few weeks after the operation before trying, though.
577348 tn?1221747891 I take 60mg first thing in the morning and then I drink about 1-2 cups of coffee. Coffee is not an issue for me and it is not affecting the strength of the Armour medication. My labwork is looking pretty good. In fact, I just had my dose reduced about 10 days ago because I had a little too much Armour. Hope that helps a bit.
