Default Brings back memories

Right now I am taking 4-6 percocet daily. Want to try topomax but the doctor said I need blood work so going for that next week. I take sleeping pills and blood pressure meds. Also, Skelaxin, usually at bed or when in alot of pain. I used to take nuerontin, baclafen and others that I don't remember. Oxycontin (Alot of!). I don't even remember doses. I understand people shying away from meds but when you are in so much pain you can't function, you have to live! I know previous others on this site have been against surgery and medication but I believe it is a personal choice. We all have to do what we feel is best for our lives and our bodies and hope the choices we make are what will help us individually. Thanks, Linda

Hi, the stronges meds I take are panadeine forte and box of 20 lasts me a couple of months. I use Nurofen plus a few times a week. (panadeine and codeine, sorry guys but dont know if you have these drugs in US!) That's it. Yes i feel the same, i dont know if its just the lingo used in US but I havnt heard of any of the drugs you guys use over there and have never been offered anything more than the panadeine / codeine.

Ozzy
