Opioids Effects of IR Oxy 30 on liver/kidneys?

[OrLackThereof]

Hey guys...been trolling this forum for a month or two, decided to join... My question is how bad, relatively speaking, are Roxy 30's on your liver when taken on a daily basis for a few years? I've been trying to quit but have had a hard time due to the withdrawal symptoms and pain from 2 motorcycle accidents and 1 car accident.

At my worst, I was snorting 8-12 Oxy 30's per day for a month. I almost exclusively eat them now, and am averaging 1.5 - 3 30mg pills per day. Not a terribly high amount, but I'm a bit worried with the duration of my habit and also because I've taken just about every drug under the sun short of H and Crystal, and 3 years ago I had a serious problem with blow and drinking. I quit the blow and almost entirely stopped drinking, but still can't kick the pain meds...

For the past few months, the opiate itch has progressively gotten worse with me and occurring at lower doses now too. Also a year or so ago, when I was doing 3-5 pills a day, I started to get mystery bruises from the lightest things, like bumping into a doorknob or something. Also started having EXTREME lethargy and fatigue, to the point that I was sleeping 10-12 hours at a time and falling asleep while working on a car *standing up* with only a 15mg IR dose for that day, which is only enough to curb withdrawal with a tolerance.

The bruises came and went for a month and this all stopped... I saw a doctor during this time period and my tests came back normal (incl. liver and kidney function) except for a low white bloodcell count I believe, and a positive hit for an anti-body for Mono though I tested neg three times for it. Recently I started bruising again but not the extent of before, but between the itching and the bruising, I'm getting worried that I've shot my liver or kidneys to hell or something especially considering the very dirty powder I was getting before I kicked that stuff..


Sorry for the verbosity here, just trying to be as clear as possible for everyone since I'm starting to worry.

Thanks all.

After having read a few more threads, it seems these things are minimally harmless on the organs right? Hmm, what the hell, I don't get it. The only other thing I use is Alprazolam and I don't take much of that at all anymore....

Hi OrLackThereof.

A very nice coherent post I must say and I do hope you are alright. Oxycodone on its own is probably not the cause of your problems. That being said what you are describing is not normal and should be checked out by a doctor again. Unfortunately I am not a doctor and even if there are some on Bluelight they are not going to be able to diagnosis you over the internet. Go get checked out and don't spend too much time worrying on webMD or whatever. Let us know how it goes.

Best of Luck!

This is true however they can be contraindicated if you are suffering from other problems. Or the fact that you are taking oxy could be completely unrelated. Either way seeing a GP is definitely in order.

Thanks....I avoid anything with APAP in it because I know how hard it is on the body, I just wasn't sure if the body had difficulty breaking down Oxy or something...

I could also note that the doctor was stumped with my case and wanted to send me to a specialist after I tested negative for a wide battery of tests including everything from mono to HIV, Anemia, Hepatitis and they even gave me four CT's looking for cancer...

I've been wondering if scratching this damn itch has actually led to the bruising but I'm not digging into my skin, but it seems kind of unlikely... Definitely doc time for me, I'm only 26 and I'd like to be around for a while longer lol

I don't mean to pry but as this could be a serious condition I hope you have apprised your doctor of your full medical history (including the abuse). I know I would be hesitant to incase they just wrote off my symptoms to drug abuse and left me stranded, but hey Doctors work for you. I've heard enough stories on Bluelight of good doctors, that I wouldn't hesitate to look around until finding one who can help me if I ever do need help. Also as it is clear you have been putting a lot of effort into getting clean, a good doctor can help you along that path to a full recovery as well.

Thanks again!

I am a little worried to tell a doc about my history, but you're right, they need to know everything... The longest I went without these in a few years was doing Suboxone treatment but it was over $7 a pop with insurance...too rich for my financial situation right now. I already have a minor heart condition now from partying like a trust-fund kid at Harvard though.. Sins of a wasted youth
