Tolerance

[pon]

I have not been to this forum for a while...I am at 105 days clean from hydrocone.  I became addicted when I was exposed to it for pain mgmt after a severe shoulder injury.  I used the hydro for approximately 4 months and had built up to a level of about 100mg a day....my question is this, obviously at the peak of my addiction I must have developed a pretty large tolerance to the drug....I have spoken about the whole situation with my Dr and we have an agreement that she will not use any type of opiate pain med agian unless it is a truly desperate situation and in hospital....I am curious though, with the tolerance developed by my addiction, would they even ever work at normal doses?  Does the tolerance developed ever wear off or is it permenant?

thanks,

pon

Pon,

Glad to see you are still out there.
And that you came back when you knew a choice was coming.
I would write more, but I just can't right now.
My Mom passed away, right before Xmas. So I am having a rough time trying to deal with it.
