Hi there. My father has very bad back pain and very sore shoulders that require cortisone injections. He has started to feel that the injections don't work anymore. He can't sleep due to the extreme discomfort he's feeling.

My question is what type of pain medicine would be best for him as he is prescribed tramadol but they don't work for him anymore and the doctor won't prescribe him anything else.

Any help would be appreciated. Sorry if this has been discussed elsewhere but I would just like some advice from people who are suffering similar types of pain and have managed to find something that controls it.

Dee H C would probably be better than tramadol as you can increase the dose without a ceiling effect, fairly long lasting and not too drowsy so could function during the day on it. 

Other options would be much harder to find meds. 

Do you know what causes the pain? What injury is it ?

I know the cartilage is all but gone in his shoulders. He explains it to me as bone rubbing on bone. The back pain I'm not exactly sure of. He regularly gets stuck in the bath because of it and in bed. When bad he can't even bend to put his cloathes on or take them off because of the pain. He has been prescribed c but never dee h c so I will do some investigation with him on this.

Thanks for replying Xegh

I am guessing from previous conversations that you are in the UK. It is fairly standard procedure for GP's to prescribe tram and if that doesn't work for them which is really common because people find lots of side effects from trams, then they usually got to deehccc. Often it is the other way round as well but they are considered similar strength but deehcc has the advantage i spoke of earlier you can keep upping the dose to find the patients sweet spot. Tram is limited in that they normally do not prescribe more than 200mg a day some rare cases I have heard of are much more but there is seizure risks.

No problem hope it helps. I have cartilage damage also but not the shoulder and have been under medicated most of my life, so I feel his pain almost literally.

I would think any of the lighter op8s... low dose oxencod0ne or hyd0c0done. maybe even a very light m0rph dose. different peoples bodies react different to these types of meds but honestly he should be on a op8 that is heavier than tram... and maybe a very light benz dose only for before bed to help sleep... prolly something with like V or Kpin which also has a bit of a muscle relaxant anti spasm effect also to relas himself and help sleep. As those who are new to op8s they can almost keep them up at night due to the mild euphoria felt of high felt when taken.. but he shoudl seek a better dr or pain specialist and explain his concerns and issues... he should have no problem getting a better and more appropriate prescription for his condition....

 
He would never get prescribed those in the UK. Over here hyd0 is not even an option but I would think is probably the most suitable for this kind of pain.

Hows your father bdl?

Any changes?

Hey mate. As far as the pain goes he feels that the trams are not doing anything. He thinks that the deehy c was more effective although not exactly the best as he still had pain on them. He's on 200mg of the trams so I am not sure if he can go any higher.
Another thing I've noticed, which I'm not sure if it's related, is that he has became heavily depressed and finds it hard to get the head together to leave his bed. Could this be a side of the trams?

Thanks for asking btw it is really appreciated mate

No worries.

Trams has ssri effects which although are used to control depression can also create it. There are few articles about this, especially if you are not used to them or do not need them. I found this one http://www.yourspine.com/Chiropractic/SSRI+Drugs+Cause+Depression.aspx

You also do not get good sleep when on trams daily, they are long lasting and prevent deep sleep. So not a great med to take daily some find it perfect others it is nightmare.

Deehc can been upped in dosage and in the right dose should work. What dose did he take? Trams the max they are going to prescribe is 3 100mg a day but only if he has been on them for a very long time.

Do you know if he is also prescribed an anti-inflammatory maybe something like Naproxen or Arthritec??

My grandfather has bad back pain due to, as the Dr's put it a shrinking between the l4 and l5 but they said there's nothing they can do to fix it, but they have been changing his medication on him because they can't seem to find anything to help. He has been on p€rcs v!cs tr@ms and m○rph (all the way up to 2 60's every 6 hrs) and he said the ones that helped the most was the hy€ro along with g@b@pentin but he didn't like the high he got from it. He's straight laced. But the Dr's give him just about anything as he also has lung cancer. But he's kind of built a tolerance and sometimes I help him by giving him some of the stuff I manage to find to make sure he doesn't run out.

He was prescribed amitriptyline but his house just recently burnt down so he's staying with my gran who refuses to let him take them while staying with her as they spaced him out a fair bit

Yeah mate I think in the end we start to know more about what works than the doctors but the minute you let them know this they seem to think your abusing them. Just can't win

No doubt we know what works better for ourselves than doctors do. But they get shut from dea. And get paid by insurance companies and pharmaceuticals to push certain stuff and not others. In the end Dr's are nothing more than puppets.

  1. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Just wondering if anyone well trusted has a supply of research thienos or benz in powders for good average prices? Or could give a shout out from me to him? Or the best lowest per each? I’ve seen some cool and some i just know are worth it. Good price rv presses too but it is much more bang for your buck. I have one good vendor. But am looking for variety’s well. Send me a message or reply if you think any. Thanks - CLINT E. Any Heavy stuff too which all seem about the ssmmmmmm
  2. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I always thought I should’ve been born in a much earlier time but I will say, i do enjoy my Xbox and occasional TV series tho 😂
  3. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  4. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  5. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  6. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  8. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  9. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  10. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  11. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  12. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
  13. R @ Royboy99: Maybe it’s the admixture of my South American dna that works so well with it ? 🤷
  14. R @ Royboy99: It’s all evident in memory recall, my emails, meetings, … people invest everything they have in a nootropic that provides this… desperately searching without success and it’s right there right under their nose (no pun) … stigmatized by society and outlawed.
  15. R @ Royboy99: Now I’m not foolish or delusional to think that it made Edison who he was … it just allowed him to Edison to Edison to a greater degree … and I see it doing that for me and others who use it as a productive tool and not a substance of abuse.. you can look at this data with the level of patents filed by Edison during that time … comparable to Barry bonds or McGuire breaking records while they were subtly enhanced
  16. R @ Royboy99: One could argue that we would not have motion pictures if it wasn’t for ❄️
  17. R @ Royboy99: I also take month long breaks and replace with Ritalin for receptor recovery
  18. R @ Royboy99: And while it may sound insane and completely destructive … small microdoses of ❄️ has really transformed me. I did extensive research on its use by Edison, the pope at the time, and many others who got great benefit from a wine concoction called vin Mariani … this subtle enhancement changed the world and as long its used with a high degree of control, it’s amazing. you may think I’m crazy … but I’m just being as transparent as I can
  19. R @ Royboy99: I’ve grown to realize that my time is finite and Im only getting older… I’m back to relying on small PRN doses of FDA trialed BZDs and it’s made tremendous improvements to my quality of life. I just need to get out there more and meet someone new, it’s the only piece that’s missing since I’ve managed to get it together
  20. R @ Royboy99: @LatsDoodis: thanks brother … I’ve spent months trying to put myself in uncomfortable places to grow stronger. Hours of research, thousands on supplements, therapy etc …
