Help, I need some encouragment

Hi, well been off the oxycontin for over 2 weeks now, but I'm in so much pain I could cry.  I'm went to bed 10:30 and was up at 2, same thing yesterday, it's the pain now keeping me awake.  I take my tylenol 3 every 4 hrs along with a couple of ibuprofen and I may as well have taken a sugar pill, because it provides me with very little relief.  I see my doctor on Thursday and we're going to have to figure something out........I'm exhausted from being so sick during the withdrawals and not sleeping because of the pain.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I feel very, very low today, it's now 6 am, this will be a very, very long day......

I am sorry your in pain. I hope your dr can help you out with this as I know you don't want to be on those horrible oxy's again. Sometimes after quitting opiates pain is intensified for awhile and with not much sleep it makes everything worse. Try to hang in there, but i know that's easy for me to say. Did you ever find the pain management forum here?

Hang in there! It really stinks when you are pain.
Will heat help? Really hot bath or shower then a nap?
