Percocet 10/650 (acetaminophen/oxycodone) for Pain: I had cervical fusion spine surgery with laminectomy 5 years ago and still suffer from chronic pain. By the way my surgeon went through the back of my neck instead of the front. This has greatly impacted my life in many ways but I have found that the most pain relief I get is from the Percocet. The only real downside is that you do get sleepy so I try to take it only in the evening but if I need to I will take one during the day. Most people don't understand about chronic pain and as a result of their ignorance tend to be judgmental. My thoughts and prayers are with all who will read this as well as all who suffer with this problem everyday.

Percocet 10/650 (acetaminophen/oxycodone) for Pain: I've been taking Percocet 10/650 for about a year due to a neck injury. I take my medication as directed. I don't take extra no matter how much I hurt. I've done therapy and injections. I've bought special chairs, keyboards and mattresses. My doctor does not recommend neck surgery due to the low success rate.
Percocet does not give the relief it did in the beginning.

Percocet 10/650 (acetaminophen/oxycodone) for Pain: I have been taking Percocet 10/650 off and on for about 5 months for back pain and for joint pain, tendinitis, etc. It works great for me despite my tendency toward resistance to pain medicines. I take one when I really need it and sleep great or do whatever I need to do. The only real down side I can list is when taking it before bed I am inclined to oversleep and feel groggy the next day.

Percocet 10/650 (acetaminophen/oxycodone) : I have been on Percocet for 2 years. I have chronic lower back pain. The problem is that it looses its effect over time. I used to take 1 per day and now I am up to 4 per day to get the same effect. I know that I will need to wean myself off when its time because of dependency.
