Just curious on what types of scripts everyone have and what is the reason for it (back pain, nothing, something).
120 - 10/325 Hydros every month for me, used for misc pain. :D

I have back pain from a past sports injury so I have a very small script... and it isn't much at all, believe me. Good thread though, very interesting. Just out of curiosity, is anyone here scripted any benzos? I honestly feel like I've got serious anxiety problems (nervous breakdowns, constant struggling for happiness, ect.) so how do I go about trying to attain something like that? Who would be best to see, college/school health? Family physician? School sanctioned pyschatrist? Sorry for the hijacking this thread, that's not my intention at all, I'm just wondering... any input on this would be much appreciated. Thanks fellas.
(Oh and if you wanted/could PM that's great too. Preciate it.)

Oh and Island, I saw you have 120 10's? Just wondering, did you build that up over time from 5's up? Or is there a way to go about getting stronger meds for back pain? Pain management?

I totally need to complain about back pain... I actually fell off my longboard a long time ago and my neck has been hurting for a month :D
Think that's enough to get some hydros?

I don't feel the need to discuss what prescriptions I get on a public forum.
It's hard enough to get relief for your pain as it is with doctors being scared of prescribing meds. I don't need people flaunting their meds on a public website.
I get enough to manage my pain, that is all that matters.
The real question is...which people have legitimate pain, and aren't just screwing people in REAL pain by manipulating doctors.

Yeah, it just sounds like trouble. Lets all brag what we get!
No thanks. I get what I need for pain relief. That is all that you need to know.
This sounds like a thread that screams "what have you faked to get a script for!?"
Especially based on the thread starters description, he gets it for MISC pain, with a smiley face. Which means he gets it for nothing, while people who have real pain are begging for something.

How are they screwing people in real pain? I don't have any prescriptions, I'm just wondering how someone who has a prescription of pills for fun is screwing someone who has them legitimately? If no one knows and they are both buying them from the pharmacy legally, who cares? There are plenty of pills to go around.

There are not plenty of pills to go around and a compassionate doctor is getting harder to find everyday because of abuse.Even with all the MRI's, x-rays and specialists pain is often under treated because of the rampant abuse and that includes legit pain patients too-who at times are some of the worst offenders ala diversion.When someone lies to a doctor it hurts those that need it most.
The only drug war that has results right now is RX's and its being milked ++BIG TIME++
BTW: Chronic pain fucking sucks and even with meds its not a walk in the park, it pisses me off to no end when I hear someone say "oh, your lucky" to have those scripts.Hell, I would rather be able to walk or run, maybe be able to stand and play bass again.Drugs are not that damn important, life has way more to offer than that.

How are they screwing people? Because for every addict that fakes a condition, there is one person who is NOT getting those meds because of doctors being afraid to prescribe.
If you rip of doctors for your own fun while people are suffering in pain, then you need to re-evaluate yourself. It's close to impossible for a pain patient to get real pain relief. And then when have people coming in faking fucking conditions, and then getting caught. Then that doctor gets in trouble for prescribing to someone who didn't need it. Now the doctor no longer wants to prescribe meds because of what happened.
Pretty soon, every single doctor is scared to write a script.
No offense, but it's people like you who have the same type of thinking, that ruin the possibility of real PM patients getting pain relief.
I second that statement that I HATE when people say I am lucky. I am 23 and I can't even play with my daughter unless I have taken my meds. It SUCKS living on these. But the more people fake shit and get scripts for no reason other then being greedy, the harder it is for real pain patients to get meds they need.

Are you guys joking? RELAX... Yo U4ia, aren't you the one who told me when I first came around these forums not to use the term SWIM when posting? I thought these public forums were SO safe brah... baha whatever dude.
"No offense, but it's people like you who have the same type of thinking, that ruin the possibility of real PM patients getting pain relief."
And who are you directing this at? I hope not me because aside from the fact that you don't know me, you have no right to judge people's posts about their current medical conditions or relationship with their doctor (unless of course they come out and say "I'm Scamming" ha). I asked a legitimate question and I was hoping for a legitimate answer but of course not. Hmm....:rolleyes: I just don't understand how someone who posts as much as you do with your account name in a fucking opiates forum can sit there and disrespect others who ask a simple question. Guess what? I DO have legitimate pain concerns (mental/physical), and the REASON I come to this forum is because a) I love it/personalities here, b) I am not getting the relief I need in order to go about daily activities and because my family doctor is terrified of treating anybody seriously and therefore I need to ask for opinions from outside sources. Is this all OK with you? :p

I started with 7.5 Vicoprofen and then I asked to be switched to 7.5 vicodin. Finally, I asked for Norco (10/325) and that's where I decided to stay.
I was offered Oxycodone at one point but I rather stick to the Hydros, then when I want to party hard I would just pick some Oxys up from a friend.
EDIT: Just a side note to the honest and moral people out there; I do not give a damn about you and your hardships getting scripts or anything else. I am in it for myself and I could care less what your option is. To each his own.

^Way to show compassion for people in real pain that have a hard time getting pain relief, because scammers fuck everything up.
If you don't care about taking pain medications away from someone who really needs them, then fuck you.
You should be a drug dealer, you would do well since you only care about yourself.
Also, it's nOrco, not nArco. You sure that is what you are prescribed?
What was the reason of switching to Vicodin, rather then staying on Vicoprofen? Ibuprofen is easier on the stomach then APAP...

I have prescriptions for 5mg Lortabs, 7.5mg Vicodins (I know its the same but I thought I'd post the name brands since thats what I have), and a script for 1mg Klonopins to help with anxiety problems.
I used to have a script for Prozac (forget the mg) but wasnt sure if that was worth mentioning since theres no rec value. It helped somewhat with my depression but gave me headaches so I got taken off it in favor for the Klonopin.

I do agree scammers fuck things up, but the DEA doesn't help as well in most cases.
Drug dealing is too risky, I have other things that you would frown upon that I do to make money, but lets not get into that.
Switching to Vicodin was a personal choice, the APAP helps boost it a little. APAP helps block the pain where as Ibuprofen decreases inflamation. (Cool tip to those who might not know)
Sorry that my views are not like yours but you have to understand the world is full of different people.

That is odd. From what I have gathered from my doctor, and a couple other friends/relatives doctor's is that Ibuprofen actually gives opiates a "boost." My old doctor was indian and he would say "you take the motrin with the oxycodone, and it give it a punch!"
Most potentiators I have tried haven't really helped though, but I did notice a slight increase in effects when taking Ibuprofen with Oxycodone, not sure about Hydrocodone. I have extremely high blood pressure (normal is around 200/130, which is SUPER high for ANYONE, especially for someone my age) so I can't take Ibuprofen, as it raises blood pressure.
You don't have to have the same views as me, but it's really disrespectful to not give a shit about people who are real pain getting screwed out of medication because of all the people out there who are conning doctor's. It's people like that...that make it nearly impossible for people in legitimate pain to get adequate pain relief.
EDIT:
does2 wasn't saying that you don't have Vicodin, he was saying if you are going to brag...then Vicodin isn't really the best choice to brag about. I think that is what he was getting at anyways.
I will just say that I am prescribed Oxycontin for long-acting, Roxicodone for short acting, Xanax, and Soma.
The last time I posted any information about what medications I get, I had 12 PM's asking me to "hook them up." So please, nobody try it.

I blame patients as well. A lot of doctor's are scared to prescribe stronger narcotics because of the people who go home and abuse their medication and overdose. Then the doctor gets blamed. It's not the doctor's fault, and to blame it on them is really ignorant.

Very true as well. Personally, I take them as needed. Reading the forums I notice people swallowing 80MG Oxys for fun, it blows my mind. Being a drug user for over 10 years, I have seen some crazy stuff - but myself I enjoy using on occasion and in moderation.
Hell, we only live once. Why should we deprive ourselves of a few vices. I don't go around telling people to stop smoking and drinking alcohol just because I think it's bad for you.
Anyway, I am glad you have some good input in this, not many people do as you can see a few posts back.

i posted before that i thought abilify was kind of shitty on its own, so i switched to lamictol or however you spell it i really don't know and i don't feel like going to look, and that works well but it makes me feel really.. like just plain and nothing, so my doctor decided to try me on both and i don't feel 'abso-fan-fucking-tastic', but i have been feeling pretty good lately.
the trazodone is also an anti-depressant, but taken in a low dose such as 50 mg doesn't really do much for me (this is from when i wasn't taking any meds at all except for trazodone and the nexium) and it really didn't make any difference at all in my moods, but it works really well at keeping me asleep at night.
i dont' know if the trazodone is effected/affected? with the abilify and lamictol, since i've been taking the trazodone for years.
i've taken loads of antidepressants, i've taken cymbalta, trileptol?, welbutrion, lexapro, wel./lex. mix, lithium, depakote, prozac, and all this shit that i can't spell for my life and what i've gotten best results with is the abilify/lamictol mix (with trazodone)
however, it would be tough for someone who doesn't have insurence or only has like a co-pay insurence, because the abilify runs for like 430 something i think per month and the lamictol runs well over 100 dollars a month, for supposingly being a relatively 'old' drug.
the trazodone is 13 bucks a month though.

The lortabs are the hydrocodone 5mgs. I had just said the generic names in the earlier posts.
I've talked with her and she is still holding onto them but she has given me higher dosages to help with my pain and has shown me my meds so I know that shes not taking them for herself.
You can call me a pussy if you want for not pursuing it more, but I want to make sure I still get my meds and me arguing with her about it and calling the cops on her isnt gonna help the situation too much.

I am not calling you a pussy. I am sorry that thread got that heated. I was putting myself in your shoes...because of how hard I had to fight to finally get my pain managed, and to think of someone keeping them from me and keeping me in pain, just really frustrated me. Especially at your age...I just felt like it was a really fucked up thing to do.
It's up to you to decide what to do, but either way I didn't lose respect for you, sorry it came off that way.

Its all good. She isnt really keeping my in pain. Most of the time she does give me my medication and if I need a double dose, she'll give it to me. The only times she really doesn't like to give them to me is if I've had a few beers because I am on antibiotics as well and she wants to make sure the meds work properly and I dont get into any danger by mixing narcotics and alcohol.
