Re: Never no way (# 28)

Let me tell you something. You're on here complaining just like all "junkies". Guess how I became a junkie? My family doctor prescribed me a wonder drug with a twenty percent chance of becoming dependent on it; as you are now obviously or you wouldn't be on this chat site. And just so you know there is still the same amount of pain medication being released in the same time frame as the original Wonder drug. So stop your b****ing about us "junkies" because I can promise you that a great many of us, myself included, had no idea that by a doctor prescribing us something to stop the pain we were or could still be in from happening would change my life forever. Trust me I would have rode out the pain. But you see now whether you believe it or not I have been given a disease called addiction that I'll have to battle the rest of my life just like you.

Nobody gives a s*** about your religion or your beliefs. People are going to do what they're going to do. This dumba** war on opiates is going to lose just like the war on drugs has been losing and always will since the 80's.

Re: Postal canary (# 246)

You're exactly right! I got to a point that I couldn't take the 60mg or 80mg any longer because the stomach pain it caused was unbearable after years of use... Plus you're lucky if they worked for 8 hours and a lot of times only lasted 6 hours giving you any tolerance towards your pain whatsoever! I'm so sick and tired of being a suffering victim of an out of control over reaching government. We are the true victims of the lost and futile war on drugs. It's just like our government to victimize a severely injured person a second time with more failed policies, make the victim the perpetrators and then act as if nothing has happened... Business as usual for the American government! The pharmaceutical companies have basically ruined all types of narcotics with the government's help using our tax dollars and big incentives for those who participate in their one size fits all socialist attack on innocent suffering Americans! Almost nothing narcotic works as it did years ago from analgesics, sedatives, stimulants and etc...

Look at all the various threads here on Medschat.com about any type of narcotic medications and you'll see one thing in common, nothing works like it use to! The drug addicts aren't getting high, but people with various conditions are needlessly suffering because of the sheer lunacy of the government's complete overreach into the lives of people who have done nothing wrong! People with legitimate needs for narcotic analgesics, sedatives, ADD meds, ADAD meds and so on have been reduced to 3rd class citizens in their own country! Shame on these looney politicians! Don't go after bad doctors or drug addicts who both break the law, go after legitimate patients and make them suffer and pay for the government's inability to control anything! Welcome to America, where the innocent will always pay for the sheer ignorance of the government!

This is NOT going to happen in the UNITED STATES. In fact if anything they will change the formula AGAIN, and will make it even worse. Do that the people affected by the anti abuse binders, get even sicker from them. The US has a such a war going on against drugs, OxyContin in particular that several cities here r suing Purdue for lying about them being less addictive. Turns out that was a big fat lie and Purdue knew it! So ah, I wouldn't hold my breath or make any bets. Way to go Purdue.

I really like the oc better than the op 80s. I have been on them for years myself and they changed them around April 2010 to the op ones and the oc to me are a lot stronger and better in my opinion.

you obviously don't have a clue they do not all turn into morphine. oxycodone turns into oxymorphone and noroxycodone hydrocodone turns into hydromorphone and nor hydrocodone. look it up for your self. use an actual reputable website not a forum.

OP aren't just the generic version, they have also modified the way it releases and the potential for abuse. It's supposed to be harder to tamper with for people that like to abuse them. The real problem is, they seem to make a lot of people very sick. There is a type of plasticizer in it, that's what is supposed to make it abuse proof. Some people taking it as prescribed, r getting terrible gut aches. Also reporting feeling shaky and kidney paid too. Also withdrawal. Maybe because it's taking longer to absorb? I don't know.

#330, sorry buddy, but you don't have a minimal clue as to what you are talking about. Plan a, is much stronger than oxycodone and Dilaudid is way stronger than Vicodin. Opana is oxymorphone and Dilaudid is hydromorphone. Opana has 0 to do with generic oxycontin, they are w2 completely different drugs. The end result is that all these opiates filter through the liver, and turn to morphine. Don't give information if you don't have a clue.

C'mon now, I'm not a really computer literate guy. I'm angry & frustrated. Did anyone out there know that there is a tv drama series focusing on oxycontin? Un f*****g believable. Think I saw it's in its 1st season up to episode 3 now!!! Anyone seen that show Intervention? Anyone seen that episode on Vice Channel? (I have Verizon for my provider). They actually showed an illicit drug dealer "spiking" 1 of his packages with Chinese (pretty sure Chinese) fentanyl deliberately to cause someone to overdose & die? Want to know why? Because when someone od's & dies all the junkies want his "stuff" (love to use more choice words, but I want this fact to reach more people).

Nice business model huh? I am Catholic, I have a loving wife who has stood by me all these long years as well as 3 children I absolutely adore. Suicide is a sin, as well as a chicken s*** cowardly way to go out. That would be quite the legacy to leave for my family, besides the rotting in Hell part. Why don't we have (forget the correct term for the dirty rotten people who advocate for the drug companies, politicians, yeah that's the right despicable word). Of everything I've read on this site we are the victims who don't seem to count. My primary doc once told me that I blame other people. Anyone else out there been in the armed forces? We all volunteered to SERVE our country to uphold this great nation. Politics, politicians, special interest groups & the Military Industrial Complex (read President Eisenhower's Bok for an overview) $$$ is the name of the game.
Naloxone, Subutex, Methadone... Some people are addicts (I feel like an addict-especially when termed by medical "professionals" as a drug seeking individual. My God!

Is there no one who has the courage to stand up for us? IS THERE NO ONE OUT THERE THAT HAS THE BALLS TO HELP US!?!?! I broke down in tears during my last visit with my "pain specialist". Anyone else out there know that these people are the highest paid Doctors? All these ones I've dealt with are anesthesiologists.
As a matter of fact here in my state quite a few are partners in "medical marijuana shops".

Has it been 7 years already? They must have been able to renew the patent. Good for them. Lets wait & see how long it takes for pharmacies to start getting held up at gunpoint again. Put some more people in the privately run for profit prisons. They've got the money so they can make the rules. Whoops make more money on those people that had to go the illegal route for their drugs, ooops, sorry again for speaking out of turn, again, medicine, as pathetic as it sounds. Want to say more, as always, gotta stop now though. George Orwell summed it up pretty well in his book,1984. Big Brother is watching. Know what the most secure form of correspondence is, has been, snail mail. I wouldn't know how to get this out there, to all of you in my position without our "Interweb". I learned from the Army & DAV, ALWAYS keep actual paperwork. Pisses me off when I hear the term (but the computer SAYS). More ranting always to share, but I'm tired. This little monitor is killing me.

Yours (WITH ALL MY PENT UP FRUSTRATION) Truly,
Right shoulder oxycontin guy
