Hi, severe idiopathic neuropathy over here from neck to my toes ( moves around but always somewhere)
I've been on oxycodone for about 9 months now which helps 90% of the time. I am also on Lyrica.
My doctor says that oxycodone is addictive (duh) and is tapering me off of it.
Has this happened to anyone? How do I convince him that this has saved my life!?
He wants me on cymbalta instead.
I am already thinking about the great length I might go to just to acquire this medication.
Are doctors really doing what's in the patients best interest? Or merely covering their butts.
Thanks for listening.
This place is very helpful for me.
