Greetings,

You may know me about the guy who was on an insane amount of Xanax and Klonopin on a daily basis and managed to get off...well unfortunately I relapsed after some serious series of events but I will be quitting once more.

Opening this thread because I have severe chronic pain in multiple spots that I cannot handle that pain in anymore. I'm taking pain medicine daily (Perks/Morphies) to treat the pain, perks when it's not too bad but I struggle and morphies when it's a 10/10 pain level. 

I don't know when I'll be off these...so can someone with pain experience let me know what road I should expect? I know addiction is one of them, but is there anything else I should know as a new person to chronic pain and heavy pain medication? 

Thanks

-VII

 
Based on what you're already taking, my guess is that constipation could already be a frustrating factor in your daily life.  Daily stool softeners are a wise addition to a medication regime that includes daily opiates.  Have read some reports on Bluelight from men where they wait a week or two or even three before tending to the problem, and when movement finally does arrive, these men describe an excruciating experience similar to birthing a baby.

Thank you for your advice and assistance. I was completely unaware, I am having issues urinating but my stool seems to be okay-- occasionally it's harder to "go" than usual but it's not too bad if I just run some water in the background. 

I'll look into the stool softener because I probably already need it. But is is honestly as bad as people claim it to be? Reminder, I'm new to all of this.

I have some experience of strong opiates, having been given seven boxes of Morphine for £5 earlier this year. The guy was older and didn't use them. I can't remember about toilet troubles from that time, or much else for that matter.

However, even codeine and DHC can make me constipated for a week/week and a half. It's not pleasant. 

@DippityDoo 's advice seems very sensible.

Hi @VII. I have plenty of long term opi treatment and can second what @DippityDoo said about constipation. The difficulty urinating isn't unusual either. Make sure to drink plenty of water, and you may want to avoid alcohol. Drinking and pks aren't safe and your liver will thank you.

Talk to your doc if constipation or urine retention becomes a problem. There is a med out now specifically for op induced constipation. Movantik is one of them.

Good luck my friend and may I suggest having a back up plan in case something happens with your current provider. Chronic pain is no joke, but with the right treatment, most people can go on to live a good life.

Thank you both above for you your advice and support. I will be keeping all of this in mind, I just really needed advice from experienced users that knew about long-term PK use due to chronic pain.

No problem. These guys know more than me, I am more knowledgeable about benzos.

I hope things improve for you and you're able to live a decent life.

(Out of likes, sorry)

Try to break your weeks up by stopping the pills and switch to kratom then going back to pills. It worked for me and somehow avoided withdrawal even on the days I had nothing. Just my 2 cents

 
I would ask dr to get off of the percs and go to a straight oxycodone which does not have the acetaminophen in it.

You dont really need that ingredient, it was put in initially as it was thought to boost the pain relief with the oxy. It does slightly for some, nothing for others.  It used to be 500 mg added acetaminophen, but was lowered to 325 per tablet because it is extremely hard on the liver which may help explain the difficulty urinating.

You can get 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40 and 80 mg straight generic oxycodone prescribed.

  1. xenxra @ xenxra: @WTF7218 it may as well be that way with how little effort some of the people on here make to find information that's exactly where you would expect it to be.
  2. ontovzik @ ontovzik: When I had long term shingles, lasting two months. All he could give me was a 10 day supply of dilaudid. He looked at the ground while we were talking about it. I could tell he was ashamed but it was the legislature and the governor that tied his hands. He was very upset that non-medical political people, the media, and the scared public were controlling how he treated his patients. Someday those people will need meds and a hospital bed and they will be gone.
  3. ontovzik @ ontovzik: I had a great doctor, he had the true gift of a healer and he stayed on top of all the science. He straight up told me that for many people opiods work for managing short and long term pain.
  4. ontovzik @ ontovzik: He peed it in the snow in my backyard.
  5. WTF7218 @ WTF7218: @xenxra 😆😂. Yes, but only a few brave souls will ever find the number. You must first order a Dirty Shirley from the bartender. Then you must discreetly take the cocktail napkin from under your drink and unfold it. There you will find the map to the location of the phone number, and clues to decipher the code that it is written in.
  6. xenxra @ xenxra: he left his phone number scribbled in a stall at the pub three blocks down
  7. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar I would try one of those easy online ones .. reddit gives useful info about that
  8. Alkazar @ Alkazar: @NYStateofMind I dont really have a history of abusing things, my docotr is just really stingy. I am thinking of switching.
  9. C @ Cheesus: Thanks xenxra
  10. xenxra @ xenxra: @Cheesus yeah, use snote
  11. P @ psychedpsych: Trump is cracking down….
  12. P @ psychedpsych: Hackers are the scum of the earth
  13. N @ NYStateofMind: so it was easy bc of my history
  14. N @ NYStateofMind: I didnt really tell him but he knew I needed a new script since my dr went to jail
  15. N @ NYStateofMind: @xenxra I was on Adderall since 15 years ago so my dr prescribed that w no problems and then when I lost my best friend my doctor rxed the valiums but
  16. C @ Cheesus: Temp.pm down for anyone else?
  17. xenxra @ xenxra: @NYStateofMind my doctor's have always been pretty open minded if i can actually come in and explain the pharmacological action of the drugs im seeking instead of just telling them why i think i should be prescribed. the only time it didn't work out for me is when i was trying pharmaceuticals for depression ten years ago and suggested they let me try testosterone instead (turns out i was hypogonadal so they made a mistake denying my request at face value)
  18. T @ Testisthebest: Even down here in Florida when the pill mill docs all switched over to Suboxone and/or retired you can still find some pretty liberal docs but you gotta know what to look for. Mine does "pain management, detox, anxiety,etc. And no insurance. My doc writes me 60 5mg Valium, 14 2mg Xanax and asked if I had ever tried adderal to get more focus at work as I told him I run my own business.
  19. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar do they know your history? Like I dont tell my doctor anything about myself except what they need to know,...I was able to get my dr to rx the highest dose of adderall along with valiums ..... if they dont know your history or there is no history I would just come out and ask what is the reason for their mistreatment.... they have no problem billing your insurance or taking a payment for the visit
  20. T @ Turbo259: @Layne_Cobain Thank you fam
