The nurse was just telling me that the M doesn't peak as severely as others painkillers can. And all IV painkillers can lower blood pressure (causing a bit of a crash): This is in pill or liquid form, eliminating that problem.
The Dylotid also causes me nausea, meaning that I need to pop *another* pill to kill that. Taking the Dylotid as seldom as possible means I take *two* fewer prescriptions, which is good.
Both the Methadone and the Dylotid are opioids, so they will stop up your GI system like a Boston subway line at rush hour. Precautionary measures must be taken!

Good to hear you are finding something that works.
WOO HOO!
Miralax and fiber midnight snack time. I can save coupons for you, I used to save them because I had the same issues with vicodin.
glad to hear pain is abated
Thanks all! And yeah: that miralx is the key, doesn't even taste too bad!
It's about time they found something that works.
I'm really happy to hear you are feeling better. Pain sucks. Bad pain really sucks. Chronic bad pain you start running out of words.
"Well you tried it just for once, found it all right for kicks... but now you found out that it's a habit that sticks..."
Sorry - the Buzzcocks were just earworming me, thought I'd pass on the relevant part.
Methadone, huh? Cool! Like you say, who'd've thunk it?
Zeros are good. Very good.

Never a frown, with Golden Brown. :)
I think Methadone is under used as a pain killer, it's very long lasting, very very safe, and cheap as hell. A months worth costs like $10.00. Glad it seems to be working for you.

Magnesium is great for preventing stopping-up. It is used in pretty much every cell in your body, and is found bound up in chlorophyll molecules. That said, it helps your body metabolize lots of other stuff like calcium, C, E, D. Two tablets per day work wonders. Kat
