Hello all. I’ve been lurking for a long time and have posted a few times.
I’m a long time chronic pain patient. Taking oxy for 15 years. Some really high doses along the way. At one point I was getting 360 30mg a month.
Currently I get 180 15mg oxycodone a month. But I had saved up a lot of blues and so even after my doctor got raided abs new doc cut me back, I didn’t taper my dose enough. I consistently for last couple years took more than I got and eventually my excess of approx 4000 30mg oxycodone “bank” has gotten down to about 300 30mg oxycodones.
I also have 89.5 15mg. I think my normal dose up until a few days ago was sbout 150mg a day. Only prescribed 90mg a day.
Saturday I took about 90mg oxy by mouth. Sunday I only took 45mg of oxy. And I subbed in a 20mg adderall (10mg at noon and 10mg at 3:30pm.
I didn’t sleep at all last night so I’m not doing the adderall any more. Im having an okay time breaking the 15s and taking half of one every 3 hours. But my mind is telling me it’s okay to take a whole one right now. And I know if I do, I will be taking a whole one every 3 hours and pretty soon more often than that.
I wish I could smoke some week but my pain management doc tests me pretty regurlarly. Ugh.
And into not like I can just stay home for a few days or weeks until I reset my tolerance. I work full time for running a company my dad left me when he retired. I have two kids and am married to my high school sweetheart.
So far so good on my pain levels. But my mind is the problem.
