That is a good question. I have found that ibuprofen is the drug that has helped me the most since I got off this stuff. I am fortunate that the program I am starting on allows nothing whatsoever to be used except aspirin, tylenol and ibuprofen advil type drugs. So I will cope with pain. Ice and heating pads. Sometimes being given no choice is the only way.
DONT GIVE UP! Talk to your Doctor and ask about some of the new pain meds out there . Dont ever go back to that monkey on your back controling you .You can do it! I know you can. Good Luck! AND GOD BLESS YO IN JESUS NAME WITH YOUR FIGHT AGAINST PAIN A-MEN!!!
You are gonna have to talk to your doctor. There are other alternatives for pain management other then narcotic pain meds. What kind of pain do you have and from what??
Best of luck to you!
