Re: Decided on wheels... Finally
Im allergic to morphine.
Dilaudid doesnt do anything to me. They gave me dilaudid when I had a bad kidney stone episode and it did 0 for the pain, I got right up, got dressed and walked out since the doctor didnt seem to wanna help me. He couldnt believe that i was able to stand up.
I havent taken darvocet in awhile, so that could be an option but IIRC it reacted the same way with me as oxycodone does.
oxycontin is just time released oxycodone, and if oxycodone doesnt help the pain in a bolus release, its not going to help in a metered capacity.
Back when I had a skin graft for burning my foot and when I had my appendectomy the doctors figured out really quick that standard opioid dosing rules dont work on me. Pre-op pain control after the appendectomy was intramuscular fentanyl. Worked wonders, didnt geek me out at all
My brain chemistry is incredibly difficult. When I was little the doctors noticed that I wasnt responding like everyone else to most medications. They compared my brain chemistry/activity to this big software program that uses a bunch of baselines to determine efficiencies of medications on your particular brain chemistry/activity type. Less than 3% of the available drugs interact the right way with my brain.
The things that dont work
Adderall, xanax, valium, morphine, every prescription sleeping aid, anti-depressants, steroidal medicines etc etc the list goes on and on. The best way to describe my typical reaction to any med I take is paradoxical. pain pills dont get rid of the pain, sleeping pills dont make me sleep, xanax and valium dont relax me.
I have to take seroquel (anti-psychotic med) just to get sleep at night, thats how bad my insomnia is. I took me over a year to get the right meds so i could even being to sleep.
I'll give you an idea. Im so high toleranced that they had to start giving me morphine drops for my migraines, until I figured out I was allergic to it.
told you i was weird :/ When you've had as many pain involving experiences (flying through a windshield at 60, being set on fire, impaled by a bmx bike handlebar, kicked in the chest and head by a horse, hit by a truck, hit by a car, pinned to a flatbed trailer by a forklift, getting thrown out of the passenger side window of my truck with my seatbelt still on, and now by back pain) as i have, you learn pretty quickly what will and wont work.
way to get ot guys, lol.
