Hi to all, i'm new here,I live in B.C. i'm a chronic pain patient in my early 40's, currently on oxycontin sr's and ir's and stumbled across this interesting site while searching Oxyneo, that is unfortunately here March 1st. 2012. I am already NOT happy about this,as of all the research I have done on the Op's in the US, it sounds to me like it has a whole host of unwanted side effects and doesn't work for pain as well.So i'm here to listen and share stories of this new formulation...and maybe make a few friends :)
 
Welcome!

I am a chronic pain patient myself, I know where you are coming from. Had 3 back surgeries all in June of 2011.
Its not fun and it can suck when you want to do something but you know its going to be hell on you. It becomes worse when people don't understand your situation and expect/want you to do certain things.

I think you will fit in well in the TDS (The Dark Side) sub-forum. There is a link to it in my sig.

I really hope that you start to feel better soon!

What is causing you so much physical pain?
What are some of your hobbies/interests?

Again, welcome to BL!!!
 
Thanks to all the welcomes :) @ aveoturbo, Its good to hear from someone I can relate too :) I have severe arthritis all thru my body including my hands,in my lumbar spine I have completely squished discs,unoperable ,I have cervical spinal stenosis, and need to have a spinal fusion...lots of strange severe pain symptoms that i'm still being tested for,severe neck pain,migraines,sciatica etc. Oxycontin works for me,but I am more than sure the new version will not after reading several stories from real chronic pain patients that says it has a very low bioavailability,plus the cancer causing agent BHT that is banned in Canada,severe side effects to it etc. I will find out for myself in March unfortuately. I can't believe that the Canadian health authorities etc, don't know that they have been manufactured here for yrs by organised crime! I have seen them myself! So, its not going to stop abusers, just hurt the ppl that need them
:( I am going to go check out The Dark Side...thank you :)

Me too! 3 lower back jobs, all failed. they got me on 10 mgs methadone for long time now.
app. 18 yrs. total addiction. once I got fed up and wanted to stop. right! what I went thru.! HS!
my biggest fear is not having meds. I cannot begin to tell you what I've been through, who's stealing it, even my own son.
I now have to hide my meds or I will be sol. Fing hospitals don't care, nor do Fing Dr's who do pain clinics.
They "test" me and because I smoke MJ they boot me out of care!!
Then once they gave me the damm patches with fentynal. I had a over dose one nite!
and the hospital was bitching me out because of it!! More BS!! I cannot belive the attitude.
Now I get my meds from the VA and they leave me alone!! they know I'm a screwed up vet
they made me what I am now. they know I'm a toker, after some 40 yrs of toking I really don't care who knows now a days.
It helps!! that's all I know. my only wosh is that the MJ would stop the pain too. then I could stop all the meds.
Oxycontin didn't work to well for me. and morphine didn't either. I had a pharmacy VA guy give me crap becaouse it didn't work.
It was like he called the shots, after I was released from jail, for dropping him, he left me alone!!
I get sick and tired of this and just want to be off this shit!
 
wow, that's quite a extensive pain list(both of you)! Pretty baffled really. Are you scripted anything else like lyrica/gabapentin or muscle relaxants? Sounds like you got the raw deal. So sorry to hear. You have all my empathy. Feel free to sound off my way if you need an ear to listen. I can relate to a lot of things but I also know I wil never completely understand any persons situation completely.

take care!
 
I also am on the chronic pain train. Ruptured disc, other disc problems.torn ligaments and tendons in left shoulder. Had 2 surgeries on my other shouder, spinal stenosis.

I really agree with aveoturbo-no one understands or else they think you're lazy. But I am a big book worm (thank God) I have a kindle and download books al the time. I belong to a fitness center but I'm afraid to go. The only thing I could do is swim and I feel that my cane isn't going to be enough to keep me from slipping. Normally, I'm not such a big fat baby but had to go to the ER 5x last year-traumatic. But the nurses were great. I guess I need a hot shot of confidence!

Thanks for listening
