Wasn't sure where to post this and couldn't find anything related, so I opened a new account.
I am prescribed .5 Xanax (x4), 15mg temazepam, ans 1200mg gabapentin per day. I do like to be a little recreational with my dosage but nothing overvoard. I have been on this regime for a year now so tolerance is a thing.
One night after an ER visit I was prescribed some tramadol for my back, as I had hurt myself moving. We had to finish moving the next day.
I wake up in the ICU intubated a week later. With a million questions being thrown at me.
I had apparently taken (34) .5 xanax, 4 temazepam, maybe 4800mg gabapentin, and my entire bottle of 15 tramadols (I assume 50mg).
I don't remember taking a single pill. I don't even remember coming home from the DR that night to get the tramadol for my back. Waking up in that icu with tubes down my throat is the most traumatic experience I've ever had in my life. I was in a coma for a week. I almost left my baby boy without a father, and my wife without a husband when she found me breathing one time a minute.
I'm really hoping someone can shed some light on this. What in the hell happened? Why don't I remember anything? I would never purposefully take that many pills. Now I'm terrified to take my medication for my anxiety which is making things worst. I know there's no magic answer, but could somebody with some knowlege/ experience please help me understand?
Thank you so much
