Oxycontin was also the only thing that helped me after my hip replacements. I can't take more than 10mg. though or I throw up from them. They had increased it to 20 mg. with my 2nd replacement (within 10 wks.) after already being on them for several months, and since it was gradual I had tolerated it then but not now that I have been off of them completely.

Dear Lesa,

I am having good luck with Oxycontin combined with the anti-depressant Effexor. Oxycontin is a time release narcotic that your doc may not be willing to prescribe because of negative media coverage. If he is willing, I would give it a try.

Love,

Janet
