Oxy always just kinda made me really angry for some reason. Also never got a lot of pain relief from it, got 90 of them after getting tonsils removed. One would do nothing for the pain, always ended up taking 5 or 6 and then the pain would go away but then at some point I'd sit down to watch tv but to much effort to turn it on... just sit there and drool, staring at the blank screen. I guess I was pretty high, lol.
On the other hand Hydrocodone I love, I have two herniated discs, pretty painful and for a year and a half I took 1 Vicuprofen 7.5-200 which is the hydrocodone and ibprofuen. I love this combo, it literally took the pain away for the whole day, and it gave me this "energetic rush" every time I took it. Worked well the whole time, of course I got super addicted to it and at one point my mom was calling me "dr. house" and the withdrawl sucked ass.
So I have to say my favorite is Hydrocodone for sure, any time I blow my back out, I ask my doc for the vicuprofens, oh boy they make it like the pain isnt there. And no tylenol so I can take 2 or 3 if the pain is real bad and not kill my liver. Oh and the high is way better for me than Oxy, Oxy for whatever reason makes me really pissed off at everything. Hydrocodone just makes me chatty, energetic, oh and it gives me the giggles once in awhile. Makes me pupils like tiny as shit though, so noticeable...
