Hi my friends,
I'm having a problem coming off of the oxycontin pills. I started
taking them over a year ago. First it was at 80 mgs. for almost the
whole year - then down to 40mgs. Now that I have had my surgery with
Dr. Reich and Dr. Redan of course I don't need the pills for the pain
because my pain is not that bad. But OUCH am I having a hard time not
taking them. I have only a few left and I am actually panicing that I
don't have another prescription. I don't know if I am afraid not to
take them because I remember the awful pain I had before I was on them,
or my body is craving them.....I don't know which is worse. I fight NOT
to take the pill cause I know I won't get anymore. My God if I knew it
would be this hard before I started taking them I don't know if I would
chose to take them. But at the time I started taking them I wanted
something, anything just to get rid of some of the pain. What am I to
do? I feel awful......I know this is not as bad as pain, but wow what a
trick it's playing on my mind.
with hugs and love,
Chrissie xo
