As the title suggests, I have managed to tear my cornea and now have a corneal ulcer which is in the process of healing. Managed to get finger jabbed in the eye during MMA sparring. Possibly the worst pain I have experienced, felt like someone stabbing me in the eye with glass.

Just got out the doctors, loaded up on about 200mg of codeine. It’s doing the job. Don’t plan on taking it for many days.

The only problem is, everytime I take codeine, I end up with slight RLS for a week. Small price to pay I suppose.

Anyway this post took me an hour to write. Love you all.
 
fucking hell mate. whats the outlook like? like will it heal on its own or do you need some sort of surgery?

i'm glad you clarified how you did it and that its already on my list of things i never plan to do.

instead of just stopping the codeine can you do a slight taper to hopefully reduce the RLS? or is not enough to bother you? RLS was always the worst for me. i can sweat and puke and shit a few days but squirming around never getting comfortable for days on end, no can do.
 
I’ll be hanging up the mma gloves for a while definitely. They said it will heal on its own.

In regards to the codeine, I had been on 100mg codeine a day for a week (through over the counter stuff) leading up to my appointment today as it was sore as fuck.finally decided to go to dr today and got diagnosis + more codeine. My question is, I don’t have an opiate habit but why is it after I use any opiate I get mild RLS for a few days? I also have trouble sleeping deeply which can go on for a couple of weeks. It’s a pain in the arse. I can go weeks without using opiates but the result is always the same. I’m worried about using any more codeine after today as I don’t want to give myself a rattle. 8 days of use is enough. To help me sleep at night due to pain, I’ve used 10mg Diaz for 7 days also.

Strangely this whole restless legs shit started after I managed to put myself into mild opiate WDs over a year ago after using tramadol and DHC after being involved in a car crash. Was awful. But ever since then, if I use codeine for more than about 3 days, I get mild RLS and sleeping issues. I also end up feeling a bit sad and teary. No shitting or puking.

I’m quite worried. I have this torn cornea but have used codeine for 8 days inc today. Think I’m going to stop using it and just rough it out. I really don’t want to end up full on withdrawing. Fuck.

TLDR: Been given opiate meds for a torn cornea. Been on codeine the last week to manage the pain (100mg a day). Finally got more so have taken 200mg today. Also taken 10mg Diaz for 7 days to help me sleep due to pain. I think I’m on the limit for the amount of consecutive days I can take benzos so I don’t want to take more. Now shitting pants about ending up in hardcore WDs.

Advice please. Don’t want to end up ruining my life…..

Yeah it's definitely good that you're catching it now and stopping. Well done, sir!

It doesn't really matter that you haven't been an addict before tbh. It sounds like you've used opiates mildly for shortish periods on/off quite a bit, and have been a little bit physically dependent, as you said you had mild withdrawal.

They're nasty little insidious fuckers dem Opies mate! Stop now before 100mg of methadone a day is your go to (just like me, sadly:facepalm:)

I have to remind myself I’m a lover, not a fighter 😂🤦🏻‍♂️
 
Yeah no more codeine for me after today. I think I’ll cope alright.

Had my last Diaz to make sure I sleep tonight. Is 10mg Valium a day for 7/8 days a safe time to stop? Like I ain’t going to get in the ass am I? I’m already expecting slight RLS from my use of codeine….

Mate this injury needs to fuck off.
 
Eye seems to be healing well already. Quite humorously however, I’ve just managed to slice the shaft of my penis on some metal….(don’t ask - it involves a door frame and stumbling about). No one wants to see a picture of that. Just got back from the DR to get it looked at. Guess what they gave me? More codeine so flushed it. Had 60mg before I went to dr to cope with pain, but now I’m done. Let’s strap in for a week of mild WDs. Ffs. Only used for just over a week. Hopefully it will just be feeling frankly and mild RLS.

I am pretty much a walking disaster this week. Torn cornea, cut my shaft….what next????
