As well as oxycontin , i have oxynorm (its fast acting sister). I assume your oxy is slow release - i find that doesnt cover the pain sufficiently.
I also take lyrica.I also cant function if i take too much - its horrid stuff. Have you tried topiramate?

A cream im trying is suppose to ease nerve/itching pain etc... Its Capsaicin cream. Ill let you know how it goes( prescription only).

Oil of magnesuim - i spray on joints - cant really say if its helping but anything is worth a shot.

Also im now on methadone for pain . It has helped a little.

Stay strong. As we read on site things can stabilise and even get slightly more tolerable

God bless x

Hi, I just saw this now. Oops.
I have tried everything you mentioned!! ( capsiacin cream,magnesium oil,on lyrica)
I was on instant release oxycodone. Now I'm only on the patch and yesterday all that they would give me is clonidine for withdrawals. At my pain clinic they prescribe minimal narcotics. They feel that you should find other ways to deal with any breakthrough pain.
Horrible huh?? However...I am ready to get my mind back again. I feel very dumb..and clouded. Quite sick often..can't explain it. Just not ME


I feel OK today.


It seems
