what is codene?

Can anyone tell me what codene (spelling??) is?

I had dental work done yesterday and can barely open my  mouth today. I just called my dentist.  He said he was calling me codene in...then he asked if i ever took it. I said no...the only pain killers I have ever taken for dental work was vicodin and percocet.  He then said oh ok...consider it called in.

Assuming he calls me in codene...what is it???? Is it a pill? I thought it was cough syrup? I am confused.

lovemypillhead:

I'm sorry if I offended you. I didn't realize that MH would move your question to the pain forum. It is a legit question for our forum and it's a good question. I was rather shocked that MH would move the entire post over here. Please don't feel that you can't post in the pain forum or any other forum. I was just as shocked reading all the comments as you. I feel that Asvig was not right with her comment to you. You should be able to post it here or there. Please accept my apoligy. Have a wonderful Holiday Season,

Thanks girl

I am about 2 seconds from just reading from now on and not posting on MH. I ask a question NO DIFFERENT then other people on here............actually, yeah--it is different. My codeine question was far from uncool and wrong.  I am gonna stand up for myself here.  I asked a simple question. People come  on MH and talk about how bad they messed up and go into GREAT detail about how they snorted an 80 over the weekend and they don't get in trouble. Their post doesnt get moved.  Or, i have an opinion about why pregnant girls shouldnt do pills and the whole thread gets removed...sorry, that makes no sense either...i  would love for a preg  girl who is taking drugs to come on medhelp, read one of my post and think to herself "OMG lovemypillhead is mean  and wow i cant believe she and other people would think that of me doing pills, pregnant".  Then, in time, she would realize it isnt about being mean. It's about the betterment of her baby and she'd stop doing the pills.  

But now, MH moves my post and people on here and like blamming me?? ANd apologizing to the pain forum.  What???

You're confused?!  How do u think I feel?????!!!!!!!!!!  

I posted my question in the substance abuse forum.  I was getting some answers....Next think I know i was told my question was "uncool". I asked what codeine was....and apparently that question was deemed inappropriate on that forum because people, there, are trying to get off pills and that question may cause them to relapse....

So, medhelp MOVED this topic to this forum, pain management.  

I didnt move anything or copy anything.  Mollyrae apologized to this forum because of me/my post....altho i didnt do anything wrong.  Molyrae needs to apologize to me and blame medhelp for it, i guess? I dont know. I still dont agree with or rather, understand why, my post had to be moved.   (as i stated above, i need a degree to post on here)

Also Tuckamore, thanks for the help :)  I am glad I didn't offend you. I seem to do that lately.

I'm not a member of the pain management forum.I belong to the substance addiction forum,so forgive me if anyone here feels like I'm speaking out of place.I just wanted to say in lovemypillheads defense,that she is telling the truth about the post being moved.SHE didn't move it.MH did,so she had no control over the responses that were given form the substance abuse forum still being on this thread.

seriously, i am so confused.  u said for me to be careful about posting....like i am dumb founded as to what u are talking about?  i didnt copy anything. i originally posted this god awful question about what codeince is and apparently medhelp moved it from that forum to this forum.  

i just logged on this morning and saw it was moved and saw these posts.  

i never copied anything.  

why would u be apologizing to the pain forum?
