Originally My PM did gradually up my prescriptions until I came to an acceptable point in dealing with the remaining pain.
I've been on my same dose of Oxycontin, Percocet, etc. for about the past 4 yrs. My pain is still 24/7; but tolerable. When the need for breakthu med arises, I take the Percocet. Usually 3 -3 1/2. My scrip calls for a max of 4 per day. I can still tell they are working.
