For Pain "Opana 20 mg doesn't take away all the neck and back pain but does about 90%, so I can function. However, also for the first time in my life, it gives me headaches, hot flashes, warm blooded 4-5 of 7 days a week, and slightly edgy/difficulty with stress/adversity sometimes too."

For Pain "I took one dose of 20 mg of Opana ER. I became dizzy, woozy, lightheaded. I developed a pounding headache! I became extremely agitated and anxious. I became very shaky. My lower back pain increased, not decreased. Seven hours after taking this one dose, I had projectile vomiting."

For Pain "Seems to be working okay. The buzz is calming after taking for 2 weeks. I'll not take the morning dose if I have to function during the day. Does help with chronic back/cervical/knee pain. Side effects are easier than morphine. That made me irritable and didn't touch the pain."
