I LEGITIMATELY have a pain problem right now

I took a 5/325 Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen pill

Its not doin crap for the pain, maybe brought me down from a 9/10 to a 7/10

What potentiators are there? My fucking dick of a friend won't give me another

Benzos? Non-Benzos? IDK
 
Well, some anti-histamines, if they truly potentiate, should increase the painkilling effect. Benadryl would be one, promethazine another, if you have access to the latter, I recommend that.

But actually, most potentiators you have to take BEFORE the opiate, seeing as how they work their magick through the liver, many times. So taking a tagamet or some DXM right now wouldn't do you any good.

If your pain was truly 9/10, it should be unbearable, and you could go to the hospital. In fact, at a 9 out of 10, you shouldn't be able to type. Maybe you're malingering.

Indeed but...

Exactly.
 
Friend gave me a fucking half of another... its my foot hurting (ingrown toenails k, dont ask)
And I slipped myself 1mg Ativan from my supply

im at a 4 or 5
 
If it were truly a 9 outta 10, OP's friend is a dick for not taking them to the ER. And bringing them a hooker and a laptop for after they get that first sweet shot of Dilaudid.
Pain is relative dude. Criticizing the OP's use of a rating system to describe his pain is at best not going to help anybody and at worst is going to make him feel like you are judging him, calling him weak, and otherwise marginalizing his pain. :\

That's good to hear. For something like that a topical pain reliever might help as well. Some sort of numbing agent.

No, I'm saying his friend is horrible for not taking him to a doctor or at least giving him another vicodin if OP's that bad off. Pain, like everything else, is subjective. Perhaps this IS the worst pain OP has had. In that case, his friend ought to step up or shut up.
 
I also fucking hate my doctor for not prescribing me any shit after ingrown toenail procedure (surgery)

hes like "o it wont hurt after i been doin this 30yrs and i dont prescribe pain meds ever"

I had the procedure TWICE before... MAYBE i have fuckin sensitive feet, and ZERO pain prescription cuz he trusts himself2 much

Well, you're entitled to request a second opinion, your insurance should cover another general practitioner. Sounds like your current one is an opiophobe, which is bullshit when it comes to real people in real pain. I'd start looking up who, your area, does the same kind of surgery and find yourself a doc that understands.
 
increase what effect?
respiratory depression? antihistamines, neuroleptics, GABAgenic depressants, and best of all, depolarising skeletal muscle relaxants.
increase the constipation? anticholinergics.
increase the pupil constriction? organophosphate's take the prize.
Increase the vomiting? stimulants, dopamine agonists like apomorphine, antiretrovirals, and again organophosphate's.
anagelsia? lots of things, NSAID's ketamine/phencyclidine/nitrous, halothane, isoflurane etc, neuroleptics (more so to stop you from caring about the pain, or at least, remove your cognitive ability to tell anyone your in pain) SSRI's in neuropathic pain, stimulants (again to stop you from noticing/caring) sodium channel blockers used as local anaesthesia, or a non drug option- neurosurgery to prevent the sensation in affected area.
increase the withdrawal? Get hooked on a GABAgenic and W/D from both at once. Fun times.

See you can tailor your agent to the specific effect sought.
 
We're here to help the OP, not complain about something our doctors did. Take it to your blog.

I recommend checking out the threads amapola linked in his earlier reply. Pain is indeed relative, but that shouldn't stop you from getting the pain relief you need.
