Seemingly good news. The new meds (after being on the for a few months now) are really helping! I am now off the diazepam and the doc is weaning down the oxycodone!!! than k goodness, I hated how foggy it made me and the havoc it played with my bowels...tmi sorry. I am now on a 5mg 3x's a day of methadone. Scary sounding I know, but the new doc really seems to know what he was talking about! He switched to that because he said it made no sense to put someone in constant pain on a short acting pain med, the methadone lasts for something like 12-24 hours in your system after its built up. And boy howdy can I tell the difference I have had WAY less flares ups and worse pain days. I think keeping the lions share of the pain under control all the tie is making the difference. Also a night a day change was the nonnarcotic Doxepin. We FINALLY found one I didn't have some sort of reaction to!! So a few steps in the right direction at last!!! I hope you all get to this same point!
