Tentative Withdrawal From Oxycodone

Posted by corafree on September 8, 2006, at 6:40:35

I say tentative, because I am not being forced to do this by anyone or myself, and because did it once b4 and pain was not tolerable.

Yeah; so .. I have herniated discs in c-spine.

I've been on oxycodone 10/650 3x a day for 2-3yrs(Began Darvocet in .. wow .. '94 or so!) and I'm using to Lyrica to try get down to 5/whatever 3x a day, and I'm surprised that 'the need for relief' you feel when a narcotic is expected and not received, IS buffered by Lyrica.

Oh ... there is PTSD and borderline stuff all around this injury, so 'my head' gets to feeling sorry for my body.

I'm little .. 115lbs, 5'5'. Doc called in some is Lyrica 25s and 50s for me to play with. I've only been on the 75mg at h.s. and has helped as I've said. I asked for the little 25s to take during day as felt initially a little 'sleepy affect' w/ Lyrica.

Had break-through pain yesterday morn' so had to go w/ my oxycodone. Having again this a.m. so will have to do same. If awaken tomorrow w/o bt pain, will only take 50/whatever(525?) oxycodone (I'm chopping them up!). I'll ask for smaller dosage pills when see PCP in week and half.

love, cf
