Just came to a slight bump in the road. Thanks for your concern.It's the support that everyone gives here that helps to overcome the twists and turns that suddenly pop up. I have been reading everyone's questions and concerns and I have found that there is an awful lot of untapped strength here. What helps to keep anyone going is the strength of purpose that others give, even when they are looking for help as well. This is a tight knitted group and as I once said before"I am amazed at the closeness you have shown to each other. The ability to give someone else a "Leg up" when they are down, in spite of how you yourself are feeling, is awesome. Keep it up people, it can only lead to success. In the meantime, God bless.

How has your day gone. I'm curious. You were on Oxycotin? How did you get something so strong. I'm constantly amazed at how free some doctors are with their prescriptions. I have never run across one.

I hav either a herniated disc or severe sciatica. This will remain unknown until my doctor gets back from Florida. I mentioned that Tylenol 3 wasn't doing the job and suddenly I was on Oxy. If I had known I would have rebelled.The only good thing to come out of this is the fact that I have found this forum and a great bunch of people. Later.

That is amazing. I mean he didn't even start you out on small vics. I had a pain specialist want to give me the patch. Luckily I had a friend that got strung out on this and said NO. He treated me like and idiot. When they gave me the norco, they said they were better for my liver I should have asked but I didn't. until the norco I was taking maybe 1 or 2 pills every couple of days for years with no problem. Got pregnant quit. Ran out didn't go back until I had a flare up. The norco just escalated everything FAST. They have some great disc therapies out there hope you are able to fix it w/o surgery. Although my surgery solved my problem. I was on of the lucky ones.
