It took me a good 4-5 weeks to adjust to Oxycontin but it was worth it. The main thing for me was the sluggishness, getting very very sleepy sometimes but the I adjusted. It also took awhile to build in my system. Be sure to keep watch of your BM's as your bowels may become more sluggish. I take senna daily to maintain. This medication is wonderful and allows me to live comfortably like no other has and stay more active. Still have to rest, use heating pads, and eat light but I feell more normal than I have in a long time. Hope you get this same kind of relief.
Love,
Janet
