Folks, do I have a problem?

[drzing]

For distribuition problems, I have ran out from my prescription oral Morphines but my pharmacist has given me some 10mg/ml ampoules AND a Oxycontin 10mg (extended/slow release coated), besides that, there must be some H freebase/salts around (that I should find only when desperate, hopefully), what would you guys do in my place, the Oxy is great pain medicine, but somehow it destroys my stomach and my blood pressure falls down to non-functional levels.

How shoud I deal with this problem, should I try to replace the morphine for Oxycontin (which has got my legs already jimmy) - I feel like it works on different receptors, despite its fantastic action mechanism. Should I take both, tapering on the morph, and growing on the Oxy side?
I have to work, study and drive, and utterly, to be as functional as I can.
Should I keep on subcutaneous morphine injections (don't wanna move deeper in the mud*IV*), should I try to IM?(not sure about the BAs),
just to be normal, at least most of the time. Can I take a ready syringe with me to work for when I'm leaving/feeling bad? Will take care for it to be protected from heat/light. I wouldn't mind prepping one as well, as it takes just a quick bathroom go.
Or maybe shoud I resist and migrate to Oxy? Sorry if I'm breaking any rules, this has been written by a desperado prepping a shot while still
able, don't need to have the dominoes falling down. Goosebumps setting in, time to run.

Thanks already.

We can't really tell you what to do. What were the doctor's/pharmacist's instructions? The first thing would be to follow your doctor's instructions and see if that works. If not, go see your doctor and see them the problems you are having (like if you have insufficient pain relief, or there are side effects, etc) and see what recommendations they make. That is a way better idea than getting some heroin. If you find the Oxy has side effects, perhaps you could try to use both the morphine and Oxy so you don't have to take as much Oxy.

You can take a ready syringe with you to work as long as you keep it sterile and make sure the contents are protected from being inadvertently injected out of the syringe while in your bag.

The bioavailabilty of SC and IM should be about the same.

Thanks a lot, now that is a good advice.
My problem, is that sometimes (more often than anything) the pharmacists know it better than some doctors.

I realized that H is not the answer, still a tiny bit of it takes away my jimmyness (ok, I did use a tiny ammount today). But I should refrain from it, as the good advice it was.

It seems there will be no competing for receptors, so I should be good. Any tips on the Oxy stomach discomfort? Maybe some dramamine (it works great as anti emetic for me) could make me feel better and even save some Oxy? (BTW, this discomfort has appeared after a few hours of sleep right after my first good OC dosage, I'm still finding my mileage).

I have left work today before the end of my turn, and I wouldn't really like it to happen as strongly tomorrow.

I feel like Oxycontin is THE big gun here, the pain relief is so much better (takes a bit longer BUT feels 'wider'), and even being more expensive, if I get along with it I might ask to change meds, as for it has a great oral BA and a great pharmacological mechanism.

Thanks a lot for the attention.

Friends, I am a bit heavy, but I'm much better, I think to take the Oxy with a bit of something else in the stomach does ease the discomfort.
Those jimmy legs are just heavy and pounded as for now, I'm glad I am not lacrimating anymore, and not all sleepy out of nothing.

Right now, the biggest problem I am facing is a tsunami of testosterone and it wants me to catch up with the sex no matter what.
I guess I have to make a woman happy now.

Strategies to minimize nausea from opioids include:

- reducing the dose
- combining with or rotating with another opioid
- changing the ROA
- managing symptoms with supplements, herbs or drugs

Antihistamines or anticholinergic agents (such as diphenhydramine, dimenhydrinate [Dramamine], meclozine, etc) can reduce opioid-induced nausea, especially nausea related to movement. Do you feel most nauseous when moving? The problem with using these types of drugs is that it will add to the sedation. If you've had good results with dramamine before, and you are familiar with how much it adds to the opioid effects, then sure, try that.

Other things you can do are:

- reduce your dose if you can
- see how eating affects the nausea (when you eat, what you eat) and alter your eating habits or when you take the Oxy in relation to eating
- reduce other environmental factors, for example if you smoke, smoke less
- use stomach-calming herb teas or supplements (let me know if you want some examples)
- the nausea may also improve on it's own, as you get used to the Oxy and find the right dosage

Edit to add, after seeing your last post: A "tsunami of testosterone" sounds fun to me Enjoy

^ this is good shit

definitely don't go buy some heroin. it's an EXTREMELY ignorant thing to do in this situation.

yeah H isnt gonna solve your problems, but could easily get you in a situation if caught, they'll take all your pain scripts away. i was in rehab for heroin, and now i have to have my legs cut off and be in undeniable pain for a doc to even think about prescribing me any narcotics, because im labled as an addict. Listen to swimming and you should be fine

Don't worry, there's no such possibility, in this shitty country. For my own good, laCster.

SD: great advices, a little ganja eases a lot of the effects, as well as dramamine, actually this 'partial WD' (I say this because I feel half bad, half ok).
A long warm bath is also great for the legs. No more cigs for me, also got bored off alcohol or stims, despite I do have some modafinil somewhere (can
it be useful too? maybe it gets me some more dopamine?).

To tell you the truth, it didn't really occurr me that I might have some WD effects related to some receptors, at least not _this_ bad, I wonder how worse it can become tomorrow. Its like my legs are on WD and my upper body is ok. Dang! Somehow this leads me to think... That the Oxy WD may be much worse than this, I wonder how right that is...

Is it common for new oxy patients to experience low blood pressure, even on barely proper dosages? (leaving the WD aside);

Lol, and about the tsunami... Yeah, I guess every men who have been through an opiate/oid WD knows what it means... Sore balls, begging for some proper emptiness, libido overflow, hardons at the most unproper times which your boxers won't hide, I feel like Prometeus. Argh. Poor guy.
Still it is strange how it messes up our sense of temperature as well.

Also, is it usual for Oxy to take real long time before it becomes 'fun', on PO (eating it)? I feel the relief begins within one hour... But it wasn't until the 4th hour into it for me to feel some 'extras'. I have also found it rather stimulating, compared to morphine (all PO), does it proceeds?

Also, is there a better way to take it, uncoated ground, uncoated whole, or should I just swallow those little beads without much drama?? 'Parachuting'?
Some people seem to have a whole ritual and a sniffing fetish...

Thanks for all!

Opium: Now that's rude, it is dinossauric old school medicine being practiced in your country, that actually goes totally against the code of medicine/pharmacy, IMHO, I would sue the state, like you don't have your rights anymore? You may ask for political asylum in a better country at worst.
Yes, that IS good advice.

Its been 16:10hrs since my last taste, I'm not going to comment about my fecal doings, got some minor piloerection, legs are leaving me alone, some chills as well... I wonder how is this weekend going to be. The zolpidem did really help me forget my legs and get some rest. But I ain't working today, no way. Hope to be better on monday.
