Opioids Possible liver damage? Maybe Ulcers?

[Dr.Gonzo010]

Ill start with a little bit of info on my past use and abuse of various substances. I'm not gonna talk about marijuana cause i believe it plays no role in this situation. I am a past user of many substances, shrooms, lsd, coke, e, amps, just a run of the mill highschool kid that liked to experiment. Then one day i was introduced to opiates and that's where this really begins. about three years ago i was introduced to percocets by a friend and i dabbled with them for a year or so using a couple times a month just for fun at parties. After a while i obviously developed a tolerance and needed to start takin more and also start taking them more often. For a while i was taking anywhere from two to four gramps of apap every day cause all i could get was percs. i eventually made the switch to oc's but now i'm back to percs and i think its catching up with me. I wake up every day with this pain in my stomach which can only be explained as really bad rot gut or something. I really could use some input on this cause i really don't know who else to go to about it, i'm a closet junkie so nobody knows about my habit and i really think something is wrong. Could it possibly be an ulcer?


Thanks in advance for anyone who takes the time to read this.

It could be anything from acid reflux to gas to angina. We can't really help you from the internet and you should go see a doctor.

I'd also recommend not taking any more hepatotoxins or drugs/food which can irritate your stomach and GI until you see one and get cleared. Even then your substance usage is something you may want to consider dealing with. Since there is nothing we can really do for you here but speculate I'm going to close this thread but if you want PM me and I can move it over to the Dark Side for you to get some moral support and psychological/emotional advice.

Good Luck!
