I don't know a thing about responding to these boards- but "Guest" above who suggested 2 "stop crying" & deal w/ break through pain- let me say this. I, too, did everything possible to completely ignore pain when my husband of 16 yrs left our PLANNED family when our 1st child was 5, #2 was 12.5 MONTHS old, & our 6 week early preemie was born- a very high risk pregnancy that Dr's thought "awful joint/ muscle" stabbing 18/24 hrs a day, fully thumping in waves the other 6hrs, might get gone once baby was born, diagnosing me w/ hyper flexible joints caused by a natural hormone, Relaxin, produced during pregnancy. My joints were so bad I'd awaken 2 a soaked in tears pillow (still occurs today but can be accompanied w/ screams of pain-& I'm not even awake. I "sucked" it up, all right, I commuted 5 days a week 4 1 hr each way to my FT social worker in a "secure facility" (I'm Canadian- think max). Baby was born days after ignoring Dr's advice, & hubby had planned to bail that month- I'd put him through school, payed off both loans, all credit debt & had exactly $20,000 saved 4 a downpayment. In our 16 years together, we did not get a cent from him working as a teacher (5 yrs post secondary); he worked 2 days a week- Tues 4-8pm & Sat 10-6pm. I still had 2 pay for 1.5 spots of daycare, though- he was too hard at work
I agree with above. I had a total hip replacement end of June and am awaiting surgery on my broken back. I was prescribed 20mg to be taken each morning and night and 10mg to be taken every 3 hours or as required.
After 4 days I took the tablets back to my doctor. He would not accept them as they are a controlled drug (uk). I had to sign them over at a pharmacy. These are very strong. I didn't like what they did, although they did kill the pain. Be very very careful, they should only be taken as part of a controlled pain management programme.
Anyone selling these on deserves prosecution in my opinion.
Many of us REQUIRE these meds to live.
