He has pain.
Doctor prescribes lortab. (10-500)
Says it isn't working very well.
Doctor prescribes tramadol (50mg)
Says it "takes the edge off" and helps lortab to work better.
Is also on:
Lorazepam (1mg)
Temazepam 930mg)
Ambien cr (12.5)
Paxil
Been on the lortab for over a year. Tram for over 8 months. Says he wants to stop taking it, does pretty good weaning off for about 2 weeks, then starts back on it.
Hides it from family member. (lortab and tram)
Was taking lortab - RX for 120 of them and running out before even 10 days were up. I think using tram to fill in the gaps. I think he has learned to juggle them to keep himself high.
He has been addicted to something be it alcohol, cocaine, prescription rx's on and off all his life.
I think he is addicted again, but won't admit it. He did admit it once, and said he was going to stop, but keeps using chronic pain as an excuse. Im not even sure where the pain ends and the addiction begins. Is it live or is it Memorex???
He is sooooo calm all the time. Wondering if it is the combination of the sleeping meds, anti-depressant, anxiety med, and the pain pills.
It just seems like it is not normal to me. Wonder what would happen if he stopped taking this stuff? Withdrawals? I know one time he was out for a few days and started the nose running and got a little bit irratable.
That's enough to get started with.
It is not my intention to make anyone mad. I just want some feedback on this. Im just so sick of having to deal with addiction I could puke!!
Okay, im bracing myself for some feedback. Hope I get some. Thanks!!
