> I doubt you still have serotonin syndrome, which is a time-limited phenomenon. But oxycodone routinely makes people nauseous. Addicts look forward to the nausea and even vomiting, since it means the drug is pure and working.
Wow, Ididn't know that. I will have to talk to my pain management doctor about this. Is there any pain killer that you know of that I could switch to? I have already tried Opana, but it gave me ileus.
I have just had a series of MRIs done and go back to see the back surgeon Wednesday. I am praying he will be able to do surgery to stop the pain and I can get off these pain medications once and for all.
Please let me know if there is anything else I can take in the mean time.
I can't get corticosteroid pain injections. I was getting them for 2 1/2 years. I began to become very weak and sick...turns out they were shutting down my HPA axis the whole time. I finally went into adrenal crisis befor anyone figured it out. I am not sure if the muscle stuff is from that as it takes a long time to recover...some have told me up to a year.
So maybe the nausea IS from the oxycodone because he had just increased my dosage in the same time frame that I was given Prozac and Zofram.
If I am able to have a surgical correction to my back I will have to wait until Feb 2011 because of the adrenal crisis. Can't have surgery until one year after that cause my body needs to recover to handle the stress of the surgey.
Thanks for the info, please let me know if there is anything else I can take.
Thanks!
