A question, if I may...
Hello all,
I am Nancy-H and have chronic pain mainly from small fiber polyneuropathy from the ankles down the toes. Add some fibro and a little disc herniations up at C4/5/6, DDD and IBS and maybe some bladder or kidney problems and you have ME! Some days are better than others but there has never been a day without pain in over 3 yrs.
My question is this. I have taken methadose for 2 yrs. now, 70 mg. broken into 4 x day. I also take percocet up to 40 mgs. day (average 30 mgs) for breakthrough pain. HOW LONG WILL MY BODY TOLERATE THIS BEFORE IT STARTS TO "COMPLAIN". You know what I mean - kidney problems, heart problems, blah blah blah.
I am now 53 and was diagnosed in '99 with the PN, in 03 with the rest of the good stuff. Managed pain with percocet only until Jan. of 04.
Opinions, please.
Thanks,
Nancy
