I get pretty sick on most narcotics so I take alot of diffrent meds that treat each symptom individualy, I also get lidocaine infusions every 3-4 weeks.
I also take atavan ocasionaly and probibly too many ibiprophen for breakthrough pain as well as muscle relaxers.. but no narcotics, I feel for myself anyway that if I took narcotics for long periods (long enouph to get over the extreme nausia I get) that they could/would take away my bodys own ability to fight the pain naturaly.

A very good question by the way.
be well,
Sandra
