Anyone prescribed?

[Jack Beanstalk]

I can say with certainty that Oxycontin helped restore my life and purpose,as a man who did not need to lie down for half of each day,writhing in pain,anymore,after beginning OC Therapy.But,alas,I ended up going to a private Pain Doc within the next 2 years,simply because the Pain Clinic had a 120 mg.a day Max-Dose policy on Oxy users(unless it was a Terminal situation.)
At the end of my 3 year Oxy period,I went from the first Px that was 10mg,twice a day,up to 160-240 mg.,3 or 4 times a day.I got up to too high of a dose and it made my joints ache and caused swelling.I ended up on Methadone.Good-Luck,JB

Adam,
I was not prescribed but did have an addiction for 5 years to them. Why? Did you just get prescribed them? They can be very helpful to people when used correctly. When abused they can be alot of fun (in a false security way) but very addictive!

Not so clueless,

Becareful or this will be a baboon on your back with deep claws. Prescribe 10mg OC for back injury, which i took 3-4 together for a while, and it was hard to stop at that low dose.
