I've been on 80mg ocer 3xs day for 4yrs and was on 60oxir every 3-4hrs bid. Very high tolerance as I've been on pain meds 8yrs now. Many surgeries including having r leg BTK Amputation a couple of months ago. Im down to 20mg oxir bid 6 now. My doc wants to switch me to only 2xs 80mg er and in the middle take an opana to work on getting off the ox and oc... With a high tolerance does anyone suggest what dose I should ask for? Thanks in advance for any help guys! =)

I saw in your post that fentanyl ruined your teeth, is this something that is common because my teeth are all literally going to have to be pulled ( bottom) due to rotting and I. Have only been on fentanyl for about 4 years. I never heard this before. My doctor just switched me to opana but the damage is already done to my teeth. Something I never knew, thought it was just from trauma which is what my dentist said from a broken jaw from car accident 40 years ago

If you had severe Nuerophy you wouldn't care what your on for nerve pain try a severe tooth ache it's like that it's not your tooth that hurts it's for nerve pain for it I've been on lyrica had bad side effects past that there isn't anything for nerve pain so before you post a stupid flip message why don't you do your research I'm not diabetic

In truth our healthcare system (namely the doctors and PA's) is failing the "addicts" and "normies" such as yourself! Narcotic pain medication IS NOT INTENDED (or appropriate) TO TREAT CHRONIC PAIN! if you are prescribed and/or taking narcotic pain meds on a daily basis for more than three to five days it is doing more harm than help. Narcotic pain pills are effective for ACUTE pain. This does include acute flare ups of a chronic pain issue.

It is the thin layer that is like gelatin keeps people from breaking crushing or worse putting it in veins. It does carry a pain killer effect but is used for safety. It is so important that you never do break them they are a 12 hr release tablet and if you take it wrong it could over dose you

I so agree with you, the opana er is a joke. It gives me horrible migraines and short of breath. It feels as if I haven't taken anything at all! I'm miserable and the ma at doctors office acts like a b**** like I'm trying to scheme more medicine from them! I wish these people had to walk a mile in my shoes for a day, have failed back surgery peripheral Neuropathy and 2 bulging disc in back and 7 in neck! Drug companies are f***ed! So are those that act like fools with medicines.

Got news for ya, You are an addict. Try going one day without your pills. Not to mention, opana isnt designed for nerve damage so your taking the wrong meds....but you already know that dont you. #hidingbehindascript

Most likely, no! The new pana 30 er is time released and most of it will be destroyed form acid in your gut. The avaerage mg you will get so I have heard is about 4mg out of 30. plus if you need a med that will work when you need it to, dont count on this new formula to help you at all. methadone to cause kidney and liver failure if you have been on it very long. Some folks dont care if they die from something that is supposed to help but I do. keep it simple and Do NO HARM mr and mrs. doc!

I started having pain in my right ankle and heel in 1999. It continued to get worse I was given codiene w/ aspirin back then. knew aht tylenol would do to my organs. In 2001 I had to quit a great job because my foot swelled and I could not put any pressure on my foot. the 60's 4 x's a day helped. in 2010 I was told that pain meds w aspirin are off the shelf so had to take codiene sulphate 60 mg and buy my own aspirin. ftare 2 months, pharmacy tells me they cant get just the codiene and switched to tabs. 10 mg x 4 a day. After getting over nausea, they worked. I always needed something that I could take when hurting and be ok in 15-30 minutes. In 2012, my doc says the admin of the corporation says all their docs must get rid of patients taking controlled meds. he cut me down to 90 instead of 120 a month for 1 month and then tells me I have to go to pain management. I thought finally I am going to a place that can prescribe what you need to really help you. i went from tabs to the lowest time released morphine 2 x a day. no help. then tried everything but at a low mg. he never would stick with one to see if a higher mg might do the trick. he ended up with opanas 30 er. at first they would help for maybe an hour IF i was not doing anything. Now its 2 years later and he wont let me go back down to tabs. I tried tabs for a week a while back to see if they still worked and they do. I could not be completely honest with them for the fear of being kicked out even though I timed it so even a U/A would show only opana. has anyone else been stuck on something we know is strong but in order to try to work any kind of job or move around during the day. i need an IR and they will not here of it. they try all of this toxic crap that really hurts my gut or I read about it and see the damage it will do and am not stupid enough to take some an said that destroys my internal organs. looking for some one that has been able to go in reverse if the old pills worked and how they were able to get some one to go along with getting off the strong er crap. thanks, rocks

most definitely I was taking oxycontin 80 and the Opana 40 mg bid works way better. As a matter of fact the oxycontin gave me hollow stomach aches like doing too much black beauty's.

I was prescribed 80 mg Oxycontin 3 times a day for Chronic pain as well as Rheumatoid arthritis for 12 years and about 2 1\2
Years ago my Doctor put me on 40 mg ER tablets Oxymorphone & after about 5 week of taking 3 a say every 6 hours, I was seriously thinking about asking my Dr to put me back on 80 mg OC's because I had a appointment the very next day. at bedtime I took my 3rd tablet for that day & out of no where it sounded as if a train was rushing through my house ! I never have Overdosed or came close to doing so ...I came within a nano second of calling 911 but i didnt, i rode it out ~What happen was it took around 6 weeks for the Oxycodone to totally not cling to my receptors in my brain & when they my receptors was stripped of any other opiates, but believe me it's worth the wait.
