My name is Amanda & I was diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis 9 years ago. I have been on just about every pain med on the market. When I got pregnant with my daughter, my dr changed my meds from oxycodine to methadone. The methadone is working great for me. Its also importan to take some pancriatic enzymes, they really help too. Hit me back if you wanna talk more. I get the whole tired thing. I have 2 kids as well, both have ADHD!!! Its not easy, but hang in there!
