Well, if you only took two doses, you didn't really give it a chance, I know it may have made you feel funny, but those feelings are only temporary side effects, they will wear off as your body adjusts to the med. AS to why the covering doc didn't call you back, they might have seen this as being an uncooperative patient, and nothing obligates them to deal with you. You weren't in a life threatening situation, so they probably figured they would leave you for the regular doc to deal with when he returns.

Almost any pain med you try that is a narcotic, is going to have some type of side effects that you will have to deal with as your body adjusts to the med. It doesn't matter what it is, some of them are easier to tolerate, some harder, but they all do it.

Dilaudid is currently only available in a max of 8mgs by itself.

My advice for the future, is if you know you react badly to the side effects of some meds, as I do to some narcotics, so you are going to have serious trouble with the side effects for awhile, talk to your doc when you are getting the new prescription so you can plan ahead. Along with my Morphine scrip, I got one for Meclizine, since it tends to make me unpredictable ill, that is just one of those things that Morphine does to some people, so whenever I start to feel sick to my stomach, I already have a bottle of nausea meds ready and waiting.

You should also not plan to drive or have to do tons of activities that require alertness right away, be prepared to relax for the most part of the first week or two. Most people are past the worst of the side effects in a week, some people require two weeks.

Verleen I would really like to know your age. I have read many of your replies and you seem quite informed.

I dont understand Debv60 why you wouldnt use common sense to answer your own questions. Lets be honest what medication are you going to take twice, then sto, and then have withdrawl effects? I mean come on. You have been on Perc. Vicoden, and methodone and you take Oxy twice and freak out when you get side effects?
Give me a break.

Let me inform you that this site is used for support and legite questions that people may need regarding their issues. Youve only made 2 posts here and neither one of them were positive. Take your attitude somewhere else, cuz' its not wanted here. I think that was very uncalled for, and beings you had absolutely nothing nice to add to these threads maybe u should take your negativity somewhere else. Obviously Deb wanted some help with her question or she wouldnt of taken the time to ask. One last thing, there will come a time when u need help or support and dont count on recieving it due to your poor attitude. What comes around goes around.

Have a good evening.

I am not sure if I ever stated my age on these boards or not, but even if I did, I am not willingly going to do so again! LOL!

Thanks for the comments, yes, I am very well informed, I have spent a lot of time, and put a lot of effort into the stuff I have learned and studied and I try to stay on top of my game, always refreshing my knowledge and checking out new info.

Abey, your post is worse the theirs, they didn't get nasty with anyone, they simply said that common sense would provide the answers and that is true. So calm down.

I was reading your thread and you should try Ultram 50 mg I bet that it will help you with your pain but becareful because it can be addictive very addictive if you take large amounts or if you take it for a long period of time every drug works different for everyone but if your not use to taking pain killers Ultram would be good for you to try. It is considered to be a non-narcotic painkiller but has opiate based ingredients in it. Good luck!!!
