Sure sounds to me like the vegatable stir fry was the culprit--BUT, I am not a doctor--If it were me, I would see if it happens again, then if it happened, immediately see my doc--Just my 2...
Hi Alan--Don't know that I can offer any advice, but I sure can sympathize--At least your PM changed how often you can change the patch--I am also on the 100Mcg patch, but have to go the entire 3...
Robh22--Again, I don't know too much about you except now I know the cause of the pain--I see you have decided not to use that doctor--good--Sometimes docs don't like to prescribe LA opiates(long...
Find another pain doctor if possible--Obviously this one is not responding. I always thought that controlling the pain was easy--just depended on amount, strength etc.--Doc started me on 5/325...
Robh22--I am sorry, but I do not know anything about your situation--except that you are not too happy with the pain management doctors you have seen. I do understand about not wanting them to...
Hi JennysMom--Glad you found this board--I have found this one and one called Healthboards.com to be an invaluable resource for all types of information regarding pain management, medications,...
I don't know what strength patch you are on, but they come in 12.5,25, 50, 75, and 100Mcg--maybe just get the next size up? I have found that my upper arm works the best--I alternate arms with each...
Is the handicap sticker yours or your moms'? If it is yours, then I wouldn't let what other people say bother me. I also have a handicap sticker and use it when I feel I can't walk as far as is...
I never had the nausea, but have heard that it is fairly common--My biggest side-effect was night sweats--wake up and t-shirt is soaked through--still happens--and constipation is always on my...
Try the Sandoz brand generic--they are identical to the name brand--even made in the same factory etc--they are larger than the Mylan--which I tried and are worthless to me--I now order the Sandoz a...
Yes, there are pain meds that do not contain tylenol--I think the name brand of 1 type is Roxicodone and they call the generic's Oxycodone IR(Immediate Release)--I think they are available in 5, 15...
The strongest percocet is 10/650 which just has more apap (Tylenol)--but as I said earlier, if you are not getting enough relief tell your doc--there are many other options--too much Tylenol is hard...
Percocet 10/325 is a fairly strong dose as far as Percocet goes--5/325 is the most common--but there are many other stronger meds. Yes, it can and does cause constipation--It happened to me when I...
I personally do not work anymore, although I wish I could--I DO have a close friend that is taking Avinza (Morphine based) and DOES work at a full time job and even has a company vehicle--So, I guess...
I tend to agree with BoxerLover, you don't have to lie to the doctor but telling him that you took twice the amount prescribed may well get you banned. I would just say that the meds prescribed are...
