hey guys, i am new to this, but here goes. i want to get off of my pain meds! the problem is i am in tremendous amounts of pain 24/7! i have had lyme disease for eleven years which has led to a lot of other issues( central nervous system dammage, other diseases because of bad immune system, blood clot in neck, messed up organs, massive joint, tendon, muscle, and nerve pain, low blood pressure, ect...). the list keeps going. lol. Anyway, i just finally got on pain meds last summer because i couldn't get out of the wheelchair most days, and my doctor said i had to get some help. i really didn't think it was helping all that much, untill i missed one and then i knew. BUT, i think i would rather live with the pain, than feel the weird feelings i feel when i don't take them. i am not abusing them in any way, but peoples addiction stories scare me to death! i don't want that, and since i have to deal with the pain the rest of my life,(unless God heals me) i am not shure these pills are the answer. there has to be a better way. my doctor doesn't see this as a problem, just a way to help me manage! What should i do! please help. thankyou and god bless. BTW, i am on 10/320 and they want to add more.
