Thanks for sharing guys!
Prior to my first rib resection my PCP and the Osteophysician prescribed Tramadol/APAP and Tramadol HCL 50mg.
My research is showing they both have acetominophen. I was unaware that acetominophen is bad for the liver.
The Tramadol is the only thing that brought me relief prior to surgery.
I'm curious to see about this 24 hour stuff, it sounds like it may be a good alternative.
Just gotta convince the Doc or Docs. Right now the vascular who did the rib resection in October has just upped me from hydrocodone 500 to oxycodone 750.
My feeling is I'm showing signs of addiction because I feel horrible if I go without the hydro / oxy for 24 hours and 20 minutes after taking one I feel like a million bucks.
