I fear I may be pregnant, but am taking STrong analgesics

I fear I may be pregnant, but am taking STrong analgesics

I have one child already, and the pregnancy was in a word, HELL. I was taking SUBUTEX at the time i found out i was pregnant, and they didnt taper me off or ANYTHING OF THE KIND!!! (I STILL cannot believe this thinking back to that hell forsaken day) a friend of mine that takes it as well ALSO didnt understand why. I went thru the most insane experience of my entire life-actually i dont think ANYONE can top what i went thru. i'm VERY VERY INCREDIBLY surprised the father if my cild didnt have me COMMITTED. I went INSANE(in a word), yes, INSANE. I was also detoxing from xanax at the same time. I has the most insane REAL dreams, i was talking to myself, but most importantly, i was in the most INTENSE, unBELIEVEABLE PAIN I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED....and it NEVER ENDED. At the 9th month, up to the DAY of DELIVERY, I was STILL IN PAIN(from w/drawl) (as much as the very 1st day i found out i was pregnant!!!)Now, I fear I may again, be pregnant. (and i really do NOT want to be, needless to say)I am SOO bloated, my insides just do not feel "right" i feel like a just ate(all the time almost) and i have incredible gas-pain i cannot deal w/. I just wanna get some kind of assurance this time, that when i go get that test, and if it IS infact positive, that my dr WILL INDEED TAPER ME OFF THE MEDS I AM CURRENTLY ON NOW. Because to tell u the truth, i dont believe in abortion WHATSOEVER(and i was adopted) but the pain and insanity i went thru is ACTUALLY ENOUGH FOR ME TO ACTUALLY BE CONSIDERING IT tHIS TIME!!! (I cannot believe i am even saying that, THATS how much i am against it, but also shows u how CRAZY i went)I was in the worst hell and it was like groundhog frickin day EVERY DAY!! I'd wake up in incredible pain and discomfort EVERY SINGLE day from w/drawl. i am taking Oxycodone and MS Contin100mgs. Is there ANY WAY they will taper me off of them???

I replied to your other post. You definitely need to see your doctor after your pregnancy is confirmed because withdraws are risky in pregnancy and can cause you to miscarry. I am sure that there are still going to be discomforts from tapering off of the medication but it would be better than suffering through full blown withdraws. You need to see a doctor that is going to take your concerns as serious as they really are and then find a good plan of action. If the doctor you end up seeing does not want to taper you off then find one that does--you have a choice in who gives you your prenatal care. They may need to switch your medications because the meds that you are on are both Class D and are extremely unsafe in pregnancy. Best of luck!
