Hydrocodone; me and my wife....help please....
First-about me. I have been taking hydrocodone products on and off for about 5 years. I have been taking them DAILY for about 16 months-Vicodin ES and Vicoprofen mostly. I am at the point now where I take about 10 a day. I am just wondering, what is this doing to my body? My heart, brain, liver, kidneys etc.
Also, we just found out my wife is about 6 weeks pregnant. She has also been taking Vicodin ES, (but NOT Vicoprofen as much), about 1-2 pills a day for the entire 6 weeks and even before that. Is there a risk the baby could be affected? She definitely does NOT take as much as I do.
Thank you all for your help.

Glad to hear you ladies enjoyed and got something from it. I wrote it during a very hard period of withdrawals. It just came out. I don't edit or change anything when I am in that "mode". I can't turn it on, or turn it off when I am in that "zone".
It is really weird how withdrawals can affect you. For me, writing is my outlet during that time.
I felt it was somethihgn that some of the new people that are going throuogh these times now might get something from it. That is why I reposted it.
Glad you did...

i haven't posted in a bout a month but wanted to tellyou my story.
i was seeing a pain spec.for degenerative disc disease. was on oc's and vics. came up with the idea of making my own prescriptions. for months and months i filled schedule 2 narcs with no problems/ one day a pharmacist looked at my script funny, so i left and said i'd be back to pick it up. i never picked it up because i knew better. two days later i got a call from a detective. told me i had to come in to see him. They had done a pharmacy search for the last year and found out about all the scripts i had wrote. you are lucky to get a misdemenor. i had 15 felony counts which where dropped to 1 felony conunt. i am on a two year deffered sentence. i have to have a probation officer, take random test pay over $2500 in fines do 60 hours community service. all for a high. it's NOT worth it. i have not done it since and wont. it's not even a thought . i know the rush you experience getting away with it. there are other ways to get rushes. be careful. my thoughts are with you.

Your prose was poetry in the purest form - written during true "angst", and yet the glimmer of hope comes through. What I like to think we all are about. "Thru the darkest clouds, the sun shines through..." I loved it, Lisabet
