Well, due to migraines and a motorcycle and car wreck, I've been on varying doses of pain meds since my early twenties. However it really got ramped up about 25 years ago. I was prescribed 4 x 80mg Oxycontin and 8 x 5mg Oxy IR's daily. Since then I was switched to Opana 40mg x 4 daily but lately have seen my scripts slowly lowered to 20mg x 2 of Oxymorphone and 10mg x 5 of Oxycodone. I am convinced my brain/body no longer are capable of functioning without those drugs in my system. BTW, I almost exclusively snort my meds and I will tell you that work is almost semi-fun with meds in my system, whereas without, physically not happening. And for the record, I do a physically demanding job and I happen to be over 60 years old with a body that definitely shows some age. That's not even mentioning the fact that at my current level of meds it only knocks my pain down a half a notch or two. For better or worse, that is where things stand with me and probably will remain that way till I die.
