I'm glad you're feeling better. I can't handle strong pain meds...

Last time I went into the Dr. for something She said, "I'm gonna prescribe you Oxycodone"...I said, " No you won't!" just that fast....It even shocked me. I went onto say quickly, "Hives, nausia, hypertension". And she said,"What do you want then?" REALLY.... I told her about the only other surgery I had and the good results from Meds I had with the prescription. Percidan It was. I took it at night and felt all fuzzy and slept like a baby!<br /><br />If you can do without, you are FAR BETTER! <br /><br />The Gov stuff effected us too..financially.
