What Is Stronger/longer Lasting Than 10mg Percocet (Page 2)
UpdatedMy primary dr has me on 10 mg percocet, 2 every 4 hrs for chronic/severe leg pain but it has lost it's effectiveness. I have appt w/pain mgt clinic on the 18th for the 1st time and am hoping they rx something stronger & definitely something that lasts longer. I haven't slept a full night in almost 2 years due to waking up in pain, taking meds, waiting for them to kick in and waiting to fall asleep again. Does anyone have an educated guess on what they may rx or what works well for this problem? Just curious and very excited at the prospect of having this pain under control.
I also have a lot of problems with pain, and my doctor is a good person who will sit with you for as long as it takes to get your pain meds. Problem is he is in LA County but give it a try. His name is Dr. Muhammad Sinar. He is located in City of Industry. (626)-968-8445. Good luck.
Is it that you misspelled the Town (city) in your post and is it in GA? If so, I too have been there.

I totally understand..osteoarthritis . Everywhere. Fibromalgia. Herniated cervical discs. Crushed disc at L 4or 5. Chronic pain.Going for surgery. Osteophytes up and down spine.From getting hit by truck 13 yrs. ago. Been on Vicodin 10 for 6yr. Then Percocet 10 to present. Im also 58. At the point I do,t care about addiction. Just want to function with grandkids. In stead of missing out.Personally I'd love zDilaudid! No way in hell!!!!
Methadone is the only thing that works for me. It's long lasting and doesn't make me feel high.
I've been seeing pain management for 15 yrs going every 3 months for med refills in a busy office with different Dr's doing 3 month fellowships, so every time I saw a different Dr with a new idea on what I needed. Then they got a new PA who had a real attitude and treated me like a junkie, told her ass off and started looking for a new pain center. After rotator cuff surgery last year my therapist referred me to a new dr who is an anesthesiologist, he has been remarkable. Very patient and interested in how the meds are working and how I'm coping with them and my pain. They are very strict and I get that but if your Dr's aren't listening or treating you badly Move On.
I go to dr. kim in colton pain management. He prescribes me the 10 percocet. He tried other ones as well but for breakthrough pain and the percocet works best. 909-370-0300. Hope they help you.
How much Methadone are you taking? And for what type of injury, if you don't mind me asking. I suffer from neuropathy due to delayed treatment. I'm in constant pain.
Hi,
well,if the pain clinic that you will be going to is anything like the one I have been going to for the past 5 yrs, then you may fair better staying with your primary doctor.
{Usually they don't give pain med}.
I have horrid pain almost all over and the pain clinic is only going with the 7.5 Percocet. In fact he wanting to start me on injections{in which they have never lasted me but for a couple of wks.}
Please let me know about your visit. For yrs, I have had leg pain also.
Do you mind telling me what State you live in? That too may work for you better than "Georgia."
Oh I hope so because PAIN is almost unbearable for folks that have it! I am so sorry for Yours.
God Bless, Barb

Thank you so much for your honesty. I think if more nurses/health care workers spoke out, it may help start a dialog towards a solution. That would be my hope. I have dealt with so much of the ugly side of PM that it leaves me disheartened and grieving for my fellow pain sufferers. It seems that when you go to PM now, the epidurals are obligatory and the meds are always under prescribed. Not to mention you are automatically pegged a potential drug abuser/potential dealer. My first visit to one clinic involved a little visit with a man openly wearing a gun on his shoulder, letting me know that they didn't "mess about". I walked outside, shaking and in tears, contemplating just leaving. I should have. Another doctor caused an almost fatal overdose by prescribing me methadone (which I BEGGED to not be put on) in equal dosage to Percocet-never taking into account that methadone is absorbed differently and has a half-life that causes it to build up in the body. To try to appease me, he was overly helpful for awhile and as I didn't press charges or sue, he found a way to evaluate me when I was days past being out of meds according to his prescribing. He gloriously crowed over me, but still prescribed one more dose, which I'm pretty sure was illegal at that point. He started me down many dark years of just trying to survive. (No, I never went the illegal drug route, but I thoroughly understand why people do.) At one point, they sent me to an "addiction specialist" who heard my story and said, "That's not addiction, that's being under-medicated." I wish that patients and those few good souls in medicine, like yourself, could join together and get something done about this. Especially for those on Medicaid and some HMO's that have so few options-like my older sister who was in the head-on collision with a logging truck with me. Surely in this day and age of new technical and medical wonders revealed every day, we can do better.
Yes! EXACTLY! Besides the point of undealt with chronic pain being VERY isolating for single people, then it gets to the point where sitting at a desk all day causes so much pain, a person gives up on cooking. Now I'm in trouble at work because my production is too low. I said 'I don't know what to tell you. I have Begged my doctor to change my prescription, but he won't. You know every day is a rotating circle of sitting, standing, typing on my knees.' Of course, she knows this. She makes snide remarks all the time.
And personally, I'm tired of all the boo hooing on the news. Abusers make a CHOICE. No hardworking, honest person gets up and says 'I think I'll go get hit by a truck or fall off a ladder today.' Every nite on the news, one channel is talking about opioid addiction. Not ONE news story on the HELL we're going thru.
All this no sleep and excruciating pain is starting to bend my mind. I got to work yesterday and had a surreal moment where I didn't know what the elevator even WAS, where I was, or how I got there! I did not KNOW pain and exhaustion could do that!!
OMG! l Hear you, I have an Infection in my Spine and an abbess also, I'm in long term IV at Hospital, They are only giving me two #5 Perc. Every four hours and one Advil every six, It barely help's for two hours! What too do? Thanks!
Should try nerotin my legs are very bad iam diabetic and i have restless leg syndrome my legs move and i cant stop nerotin is a non.narcotic pain medication that really works.
You know they cant give everyone the highest pain meds and go.down the scale u heart and othet parts would suffer its better to have them adjust your meds slowly and smartly
People should try everything before methadone that is the worst pain med to come down off A freind was on that it took him a year to be tampered works great for pain for awhile he said he was a postman and got hurt see with methadone it works then u have to go up U cant do that the rest of your life

Please get your doc to prescribe lyrica for your fibro it is the best for that I visited cali and the docs out there suc
I have had a disease called Neurofibromatosis OR NF for short, it causes tumors to grow on the inside and outside of the body, I have degenerative disc disease, scoliosis, arthritis of the spine. Im on percocet 10/325 for the past 4 years now, I started weaning myself off with doctor overseeing it, because I wanted to feel pain again lol silly but I wanted to feel more human so to speak, this was in july 2017 on sept 13th 2017 I asked to be upped again, I cant stand the constant pain and now it seems ive grown resistance to the pain med. What I have found helped me in past was after surgery was percocet 10/325 and straight oxycodone the lowest doseage taken at the same time, or usually when I go to the emergency room they have gave me daludid which took my pain completely away for 6 hours before it started coming back. I see a general practitioner whom deals with my pain, ive seen pain management drs in the past and they just wanted to put shots into my back which hurt me worse in the long run.
Re: Bil (# 34)
Yeah, my doctor just added extended release morphine to my regimen. I ain't crazy about it, cuz it makes my chest feel tight. I see the low and slow approach. But he wasn't convinced his way wasn't working til I took production reports from work!
