percocet and nightmares

I've had long standing back problems. to make a long story short. I was taking vicoden for long time, found myself very depressed and angry, at everyone and everything. Thought it was bad depression, (I do suffer from). Anyways, I've stopped the vicoden, and now on Percocet and Nuerontin, and Ibuprofen. My mood has changed. I seem not to be so depressed, etc. I am happy once again, I go out of the house, do more with family, husband, friends, etc.

back surgery and was sent home November 1 with a two-week supply of Percocet and enough 10 mcg Fentanyl patches to get me through November 18. Upon returning home, I immediately started to reduce my Methadone, until I had stopped using it on the 15th. The Percocet ran out on the 17th.

I am tapering off of them because of this and doing a fast taper at that because I HATE the feeling of not wanting to do anything I was on 400 mgs ms a day every 6 hrs and 15 mgs hydromorphone 4 to 5 ad ay for BTP I went from this to 50 mgs ms and 5 HY a day within a week and tomorrow to NO ms and keep the hydro and taper from there

I don't have nightmares, but I do have very weird dreams. And it's the same time every night! I wake up every morning about 4:30 and when I go back to sleep, that's when I have them.

I've been having nightmares for days and waking up crying and sweating. I can't sleep at night, so I end up going to bed around 3am and waking up around noon. I'm on vacations now so it doesn't actually affect my daily schedule, but I feel I don't seize the day waking up so late. Any natural alternatives to sleeping pills? I'm not very fond of sleeping drugs...

If you eat food with sugar right before bed they may trigger nightmares. Try to drink hot tea and light a candle and relax before bed. Find some relaxation music to listen too while you drink hot tea with honey.

I am 29 years ols, About a 4 years ago, I was prescribed percocet after a hrrible car accident. And about a year and a half a piece of a roof collapsed on me- and I was prescribed oxycodone, this time they are 30mg, and I am prescribed 4 a day- i found out 2 weeks ago that I am 8 weeks pregnant (now 10wks) and I havent gotten into an OB yet (that is next week) and I already daw my Ortho surgean weeks ago.

I am 22 weeks pregnant and I have been having horrible nightmares. These nightmares feel so real, that sometimes I wake up and have to convince myself that its not true. And it has come to the point where I am feeling hatred towards my husband over past experiences between us. Things we have already worked through. Is this normal and how do I deal with it. I don't want to lose my husband over stupid dreams.

i've been having dreams and nightmares for a week solid. Can't get into my doctor for another 12 says. They are going from adandoment, which will never happen. To creepy, to things that make little sense. Waking me up, I don't feel rested. I'm scared to sleep, and I don't know what to do. Other then try and escape reality, or close off from everyone. I'm going crazy, and honestly I don't know what to do anymore.

aside from that, just had TT, RAI treatment, am sleeping 18 hours a day and having horrible nightmares. whoooopppeeeee......and to think everyone I tell I have thyroid cancer always says, if you have to have cancer that's the best one to have...............oh yeah. anyway, commiserations on your situation; i am hoping you will have sweet dreams soon.

Try not to eat or drink anything (other than water) an hour before you go to sleep it should help with the nightmares and with the other part of not being able to sleep my body pillow has become my best friend I can put it under parts that ache

i find them very disturbing as they are always in color and and involve family members who are living and dead. i dont think ive had one night where i didnt dream atleast 4 nightmares in a row. can these nightmares be because of my bi polar ? or am i just cracking up? ive tried talking to shrinks in past. and its not for me ive always felt worse when i leave than when i got there. is my past and troubling childhood and life showing itself in my dreams?

My pain management doctor recently switched me to hydrocodone 10-500 due to pharmacy crack downs and I am itching like crazy and having bad nightmares and don't sleep well and grind my teeth bad. I must be having an allergic reaction? I'm not allergic to anything but this now. I'm suffering in pain cause I can't take these side effects! I was on Oxycodone 10-325 and didn't have any problems.

I use to have nightmares as well and for some reason they were more intense than regular nightmares i had but then I stopped having them and now i have weird stupid dreams and im also having problems sleeping as well im 39 weeks and i cant sleep for nothing!

I am on Trileptal, Lamictal, and Luvox. The only reason why I am really confused is because we haven't made any medication changes for quite a while now. I was very stable for a while, and still am emotionally, but these nightmares and sweats are getting a bit concerning. I just don't like not knowing what is going on with my body. Can your medication start giving you side effects even after being on them for a long time.

When I think that I have a disease I will have nightmares about it. Seriously before i was so scared I had cancer I was having nightmares that I had it... I have not heard voices in my head, You will be fine. seek help from a doctor if you feel like you truly need to. Maybe try CBT therapy, meds, meditation, etc.

I have seven days left and my midwife told me that most women suffer from nightmares now and that they can be really weird like a baby born with two heads etc.

I only started taking percocet yesterday, after suffering for 4 days with severe pain. I had tried everything, NSAIDS, hot wet compresses, I went for massages 4 days in a row! I'm going to have to go back and get an MRI, but in the meantime, I need to take the percocets. I just don't know if I should continue taking the subs while I am on the percocet. I want off the subs really bad, but I only got 15 percs and I don't know how long it will take me to get another Dr appt.

Well when your pregnant the hormones rise and it causes you to have worries and nightmares. Trust me its just the hormones i had scary nightmares about losing my baby all the way till my second trimester and i never miscarried so theres nothing to worry about unless your bleeding. GOODLUCK AND LOVE EVERY MOMENT OF IT!!!!

I'm not sure but I remember when I was on Lamictal it caused disturbed sleep and nightmares. I've been on Klonopin 10 years and it actually helps adjust sleep. It would more likely be the Lamictal but speak to your psychiatrist about it. Unless the Lamictal is sedating perhaps you could ask them if the time when you take it could be adjusted so it was earlier so it would not interrupt sleep.

ve had them with all 3 pregnancies. And same with the cracking back. I sit up and mine cracks. I asked my OB and he said as long as it isn't extremely painful, its ok.

She is suffering from post tramatic stress and has very real nightmares. It takes several hours for her realize they are dreams. She is sleep/wake having conversations she doesnt remember and and having conversations with us that did not happen, Sleep walking, cleaning.... Is this common and should Ambien be prescribed to teens with PTS?

It is possible that any meds you are taking make you dream more especially nightmares ask your Doctor about the doseage or changing them. ,it may also be giving you other side effects so check it out, you should be able to feel better than you do.

i havent taken percocet in about 2 weeks now and for some reason im still having cold sweats and im very restless i cannot sleep at all. i went back to that same detox and the gave me ambien for sleep but i took that and still had trouble sleeping. and once i got to sleep i kept waking up feeling very restless and uncomfortable.

I have had the freakiest dreams and scariest realistic nightmares every night for the past week. Am I the only person going through this? I need some normalization...

Given your description it sounds to me like you have achieved lucid dreaming, that is you know you are asleep. See Lucid Dreaming I recommend the book by Stephen DeBerges (I think that is the name) he's with Stanford University. The options you seem to have it to engage the dreams with you conscious mind, first make sure you are dreaming - DeBerges gives some ideas on how to test without taking unnecessary risks. The other option, I have taken, is wake myself up.

However now that I am pregnant again I have been having nightmares he is cheating on me and the woman kidnapping my little Issabella. It is so hard, and if you haven't experienced it first hand its hard to understand. Just do not let it effect your relationship. Remember they are just dreams and in the end you wake up from them and you see you are still together. And about getting bigger. Instead of seeing it as getting fatter, see it as your child is growing.
