1. Got enough to share?

Both the shoulder AND the knee are flaring up tonight.

A Vike or two would go well with the Jack Daniel's right about now.

2. I have vicodin cough syrup

Will that do?

[Redstone]

3. You mean codeine cough syrup?

Sure, why not. Any old opioid would do for new.

[Not_Giving_Up]

5. Nope, it's vicodin

I can't take full blown codeine, makes me hurl.

[redsoxliberal]

9. codeine is AWESOME!!!!!

woooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooo


the ONLY good part about kidney stones is the narcs.

4. I prefer Darvocets

And lucky for me, my doctor lets me have a nice big 'scrip of 90 of these 100mg babies -- enough to self-dose for occasional migraines for close to 9-10 months, sometimes longer.

Vicodis tend to make me just feel woozy, with little or no actual pain relief.

YMMV!

[Redstone]

10. Darvocets? Oh, yes...

At least they won't kill you.

There's some scary stuff out there... my doctor prescribed Duragesic (fentanyl) patches for me when nothing else would work. I looked at the insert and found out the the most common negative side effect is that you stop breathing!

I'll take the pain if that's the alternative, thank you very much.

I'm sure there's a serious discussion about chronic pain out there, but this more lighthearted one has done wonders for me on a night when the pain envelops me like some malignant cloak.

Thanks, all.

6. I thought I'd need some tonight

Have arthritis in the back and vicodin in the medicine cabinet.

I decided to play golf today for the first time in a long time.

I'm not hurting, but the way I played, vodka is doing wonders.

7. I chowed down some marinol

earlier this PM

:smoke:

[Redstone]

12. Uh, what's marinol?

More info, please. Anything to avoid going back on that dreadful Topamax, which kills the pain but can trigger MS. Among other things.

Redstone

[miss_kitty]

14. MARINOL® (dronabinol) is a synthetic version of

a naturally occurring compound known as delta-9-THC. Delta-9-THC stimulates appetite and reduces nausea and vomiting by binding to special receptors found in your nervous system.

Fake THC. It regulates my GI tract in ways nothing else I have tried W/o UNWANTED side effects. The side effect I do get, I would otherwise seek.

It's great for sleep problems too. My SIL who has MS uses it to calm some side effects she gets from drugs ahe takes and the effects of MS.

[Redstone]

16. Hey, thanks a bunch

for the info. Now I have to get out of this office chair, or I won't be able to walk in the morning.

Nice chatting with you all. I'm not alone, am I?

Redstone

[miss_kitty]

17. No. You are not alone

Have a good evening! :hi:

[maveric]

8. VROOOM, VROOOM!

Love the shit!

[11 Bravo]

11. Fuck it, bring on the morphine!

I've only been spiked up twice, (and both times I had to get shot first) but if you're talking opiates, I give Mother M my five-star rating.

[Redstone]

13. Shot twice?

Once was enough for me. What made you go back for seconds?

I concur with your five-star rating. I almost wept last time I was in the hospital and the nurse dropped the bottle of Morph trying to load up the pump. Had a disturbing desire to lick it up off the floor.

Redstone

[11 Bravo]

18. Nobody gave me a choice.

First time was a scratch, but the medic was my buddy. Second time earned me a ticket home.

[Redstone]

19. Yeah, they never ask you

if you'd like to go back for seconds, do they?

Good on you for making it back.

15. I had a nurse who called it

"your new best friend" when I asked "WHOA! WTF was that!?!" and that was my 3rd or 4th time.

[madison2000]

20. I've got hydrocodone on hand for migraines

But for some reason I have a lot of pain in my shoulder and arm today so I am using it for that.
