In pain again - 17 days free

I'm 17 days off of oxycodone but I'm in some major pain. Been doing some new streatches and exercise. They have helped with this most of the time but other not to much. I can not take anti inflammatory drugs due to my condition so the only thing I can take is tylenol everything else counter acts with my medicine for my condition (lovenox) hard to do things with living this and also in pain. I called my hemo today who handles my meds and spoke with him about everything. He knew the whole story how I took more then I needed and how I stopped and threw 90 pills down the toliet.... He now wants my husband (who is totally trust worthy and know my dr well for years of my treatments) to assist me with taking pills. He suggested instead of the 1-2 every 3 -4 hour 2 ever 6 what r the feeling on this any assistance or good advice

I have a blood clotting condition and have had around 20 clots in my legs causing chronic vein pain and deep vein pain. I was taking oxycdone. I can't even touch my legs sometimes its so bad I wanna just cry. I have always taken hot baths to soak and do help but its temporay I will wake with pain hour after falling asleep. So what I was asking was even though I am clean and my dr knows my WHOLE story and is supporative he does not want me in the hospital again with issues.....would it be horrible to take when needed if my husband controls them... Again not a daily needed thing. This week alone last night was the only issue I have had. I was close to going to the er... It does get that bad I can't even move.

Can you rephrase your question?  Are you asking what people think about your husband
being in charge of your pills?
Also,can you remind us of what you were taking and what your condition is?  Where is the pain?
