I’ve been diagnosed with arthritis for almost 30 years now and just recently my rheumatologist gave me a prescription hydrocodone 5/500, which I’m supposed to take two of in the morning after the meal, but when I do, I seem to become completely different person - I’m aggressive, full of energy and almost hyperactive which causes me to fight with my wife. And after this, if I haven’t had a good breakfast, I start feeling nauseous to the point of throwing up. So I’m wondering if maybe I’m on too high dose of this painkiller or if this is the right painkiller for me, given all the personality changes it causes. Besides this, I’m kind of scared to taking 1000 mg of acetaminophen daily because it might be hurting my liver.
