I have two herniated discs in my neck, muscle, and nerve damage from a bad car accident I was in back in October. I've been on OC's for almost a year now and went to go pick up my script after my doctors appointment on Wednesday and all they had were the shitty OP's. I was going to try and call around to see if any other pharmacies in the area (DFW metroplex) have some branded OC's still on the shelf. These OP's suck serious balls. It's not even about abusing them for me, I just need them for the pain relief. Every now and again when I was in serious pain I would snort a 40 and pop a 40 just so I could get hit instantly plus have the time release. I just had surgery on Friday and they shot me up with about 6 to 8mg of diluadid while I was in post op (2mg every 5 mins till I was comfortable) till I was comfortable enough to go home. Well when I got home I took an OP40 and a 30mg Roxi and felt alright but I was still pretty out of it due to the sedatives and anesthesia they used so I really didn't have an idea of how horrible I really felt till this morning. It felt like I ran into a brick shit house at full speed. The Roxi's I use for the break thru pain have been my saving grace so far because the new OP's are fucking worthless. I did tons of reading today trying to come up with some way to make them hit harder or work better. So I ground up a 40 with my microplane into a cup and then added coke to simulate stomach acids as mentioned in a previous thread. I'm going to let it sit over night in my fridge and see how well this works in the morning. I definitely need an ER pain killer that works due to all the pain I am in after these surgeries. I've had 9 so far and this one has been the worst to date. The roxi's are pretty much the only thing getting me thru right now but i'm only supposed to take them for break thru pain. I was seriously considering IV'ing one today just to get the pain under control. I've read tons about it i've just never actually done it so i'm pretty skeptical. I think I would rather plug it. I'm searching for info on that as we speak trying to figure out what I want to do. Anyways I will report in the morning and let you know if the coke trick worked. I'm sick of this shit already, I am going to talk to my surgeon about getting put on opana ER. I have to have something that works these are garbage!
