Has Anyone That Takes Opioid Medication Have Surgery Or Sedation For A Procedure That Didnt Work? What Did They Do?
For those that are opioid tolerant like taking opioid Rx’s everyday, what do they give you for pain or sedation or surgery and how much do you get?

What the hell. Thats very unprofessional and disgusting.
Masked Symptoms
As some of you may know I’ve had to come of codeine and Tramadol and currently on an increasing dose of Gabapentin. In general am feeling Ok ish. But I’m left with really bad lumbar pain (new pain) I feel my GP is ignoring this and not carrying out appropriate tests. Had a Chiro assessment and he said he couldn’t/wouldn’t touch me and I needed a scan to find out what was going on. My GP decided to increase the Gaba by 100mgs 🙁. Got to go back for review on Monday. So my question is What… read more

Pain Management
I’ve lived with pain for a while now but after an allergic reaction to codeine and opioids now on an increasing dose of Gabapentin. Currently sitting at 300. 200 and 300 and seeing my doctor in a week to increase further.
My question is what do you guys do for break through pain if the regular pain killers and NSAIDs are unsuitable. Many thanks in anticipation of your wisdom 🦉
I am on 800mg 3xday. It was 4xday but my primary believes the higher dose is a contributing factor in my feet turning blue. Ya don't know what to believe these days. My pain medication Nuycenta was… read more

Treatment
Looking for information on Hysingla. I’m currently taking 5 10/325 hydrocodone, oxcarbanezine, diazepam, and my pain doctor added Hysingla 20 mg. I’m concerned about drug interaction and side affects. I checked interactions and some are life threatening. Please tell about your experience with Hysingla. Thank y’all.
I am dosing off the diazepam. No one ever told me it wasn’t for long term use and I need pain control the most.
