I'm a long time kidney stone person and I take hydrocodone and oxycontin from time to time. Not every day and the hydrocodone is a 5 gm pill. My question concerns all the other meds I take. I take them in the evening. This evening I took my regular meds (I'll tell you what they are in just a minute) and then was in a lot of pain from a stone that's been stuck for about 12 weeks. But now my breathing is altered and I'm having a hard time taking a nice big breath. I'm worried to go to sleep now. here's what all I have in my system:
gabapentin (600 mg)
1 benadryl
Wellbutrin (150 mg)
prednisone (5mg)
oxycontin (20 mg, time release)
I do just fine on the first 4 meds every night, but it's the addition of the oxy that's causing problems. My question is, should I stay awake till the oxy wears off? I know there's no magic number for OD, but I take very little and not on a regular basis, so my tolerance is pretty low.
Should I stay up to be safe? I'm so sleepy, dang it!
