50mg

Nov 04, 2009 04:26PM - 5 comments

Down to 50mg and hanging on.  I guess when I get to 40 I will quit.  I only take 10mg at night but am still sleeping.  Only prob is that I wake up often and have very vivid dreams.  I can usually get back to sleep so not too much of a problem.  Tempted to get up last night and take morning meds but didnt.

Started massage last week to help with returning pain.  LOVE IT!

Oxycontin.

Wow, that was real strange because my nick name is Mimi in real life. Is it your real name?

Charetti, i feel 4 you. i was up to 10- 80mgs oc's a day plus percocets for breakthrough pain. weaning was brutal 4 me. i felt like a yoyo. i discovered www.e-tox.com its a natural home remedy program that has a huge success rate. On their website alone will give u tons of info, without having to go thru all the sign up bologna. i mean like whats the deal with all the info these websites require b 4 u can even chat with anyone? They must b selling the info to someone (just my opinion). anyway u should go to that website, it might help u get the rest of the way to opiate freedom.

Charetti, I was reading through the forum, as I do just about every day, when I came across your post. It then led me back to me & realized that you had answered my 1st post. It just shows how God works in mysterious ways. Right before I got on here I was in my bedroom on my knees praying for God to help me. Have not done that in quite a while. Then I got on here & started perusing the posts, came across yours & thought wow she sounds just like me. From the pain & oxys & everything. I am also going to do a taper. And your post has given me more strength to be able to do that. By the time I get my meds every month I am tapering anyway because I am so low. Low for me is anywhere form 90mgs to 100mgs a day of oxy plus other meds. I am currently having a severe bout of sciatica pain, down left leg, & yes my knee hurts really bad. And unless you have that kind of pain no one really understands. But I am at the point where I would rather have the pain than counting pills & days every single day just so I won't be sick. I know there is NO WAY I can c/t. Too brutal! But I know if I do not get control of this situation that day will come again & it terrifies me. Yet every month I take myself back up to a high dose. I am not getting any younger & counting the days till another Dr. visit is just making the time go by faster. I swore to God I would be off of my meds by this time this year. Well here it is another year & taking even more than I was last year. No one in my family knows about this, except for my husband.. I have such a long ways to go before I am clean. Sorry this was so long but this forum is the only place where there are others like myself that understand. BTW Keep up the GREAT Work you are doing! You are an inspiration to me!

i just completed a 4 day program on www.e-tox.com and i feel great.
its an all natural at home program with 24/7 live coaching.
part of the commitment i made to myself was that if i could get thru this.
i would help as many people as i can. so here i am. i am so happy i found that program.
it was a 100 times easier than i thought it was going to be. Their are some
qualifying factors to take part in this program, but mostly just
good judgement stuff e.g. not have a serious heart condition...ect.

good luck and stay strong
