I agree it might sound like I want to take OPIATES, but I dont...My pain level is enough to go to the ER but I have family up in my state for memorial day weekend, i cant be sitting in the ER, I have cookouts today, going to the beach, I just needed to cut the pain. I know I will be fine andwont think about them what so ever....But no none of this is an excuse or I wouldnt have posted with questions...
I cant take excedrin, I have chronic migraines, I used to see a neurologist, I take relpax a really strong migraine medication..nothing over the counter works for me to be honest, my whole family is like that, always need strong, high doses for anything, anti-inflamatories for colds. when I got my teeth pulled I had to get 1,000mg of penicillin, trust me if i could take excedrin i would, but it does nothing... thank you for writing back to me!
no it wasnt an excuse to take it at all, i was supposed to get surgery on my nasal cavities bc they are so narrow that the mucus doesnt drain it sits right in my nasal passages, and when that happens sometimes it turns into a migraine. TRUST ME I dont want to take percocet its not even my drug of choice I hate it. I have taken a percocet this morning because I couldnt lift my head up it hurt so bad.
I have been taking benadryl sinus, EXTRA STRENGTH, Zicam nasal spray, motrin 800's, claritin, it doesnt do anything thats the problem, I took a percocet yesterday and im fine today, no cravings no nothing, i have my head straight, but I really am in pain and my doc did say it was sinusitis, the pain is so unbearable I want to scream, didnt have enough money for the surgery at the time so I delt with it..But for all of you I promise its not because I WANT them, I HATE them, They make me sick to my stomach I just live a life of migraines and headaches and sometimes there comes a point to where u just need SOME relief. thank you all for your posts I appreciate it, I will get into see the doc for a script of something for this sinus ****! ive been so good with pills, ETC. I am proud of myself to say im clean, in a way...with 3 perks this weekend, but TRUST ME mentally I dont even care about them like most people would, im a weird addict I guess LOL..I dunno how to explain it... But I take confidence knowing I dont need them or want them, I really have a good mind set with this..trust me.
Also I didnt post to tell people to tell me to take a percocet, that kind of hurt a lot, I can get pills anywhere anytime, but I will not go that route ever again. Im sorry it came off like that. Im doing great other wise!!
I dont think it is stupid not to finish them...we are adults here and if ur body feels like it can go with it from here on out then i would....i will be honest...u did better that i thought u would...u kicked butt girl!
Thanks Worried!! =]
I did do a fast taper...my first day was 12mgs of Subutex..then after the 10 days...of the detox period...he gave me some more...and told me just to take one 2mg pill in the am, and thats it...then go down to a half, which is 1mg in the am...and then cut that half in half, and take that which I did for one day...and now IM done. I didnt want to trade one pill for another...
My legs bother me somewhat tonight, but he gave me a sample pack for RLS but I havent taken it. I should cuz when I get to be feeling uncomforable...its just my legs, and I get warm...but its nothing I cant handle...and who knows it might be all in my head. I only feel different at night with my legs...so who knows. I didnt want to get hooked on Subutex....I was only on the 2mg tabs during this detox time and it was fast...
I do still have some left...just dont want to take them, I think i have 6 more and dont want them either! Im just ready to stop everything I guess....maybe its stupid not to finish the 6 i have left....but I dont want to get hooked!!
Nothing too much to add other than that short time into recovery...i think u know it is not like a primo idea or u would not have posted it...when i feel confident about my decisions i do not ask for other peples opinions...so in light of the fact that it bothered u enought to post about...i would say...no it is not a good idea
pdidddy...u sure did a short detox off the sub ...or maybe time just goes by so fast...u did great...glad 4 u!
