Fentynal Vs Oxycocet

Updated

I have a severly Detereriated Disc at the L5-S1,I have been taking 2x325 mg.tabs of Oxycocet (Canadian)3 times a day for pain since OCT.2007. My Doc Keeps Trying Nsaids,&Up till now they have had minimal effect,Other than Stomach Problems. I Talked to a Freind,Who Is An R.N. He asked if I had been on Fentynal .Can Someone tell me if this is a good replacement for the oxycocet?Either my body is building up a tolerance to the OXY.or my Back is getting worse. Thanks, Steve

I have been on Methadone for 30 years,and there was only one drug i could feel above it and that was Fentynal.I got about 4 fentynal patches and eat the fent gel out of the patches.Ten minutes later and i lit up a cigeratte and klick the fentynal started coming on.I have done dilaudid,liquid morphine and just about every Opiade there is on top of my methadone.And the only drug i felt was Fentynal. It kicks ass!

Fentynal is an excellent pain killer but you need to watch out for personality changes. It worked better for me than enything I have ever taken for chronic pain. I was on the fentynal patch for 8 months it was 75 mg and my friends and family started to telling me that my personality was changing and I didnt realize it so I got mad and just pulled the fentynal patch off of my arm and went into withdraws for like 6 weeks, but next time I will go to the dr and tell him if I ever want to stop taking anything again instead of suffering withdraws. It is not a nice thing to experience. I was also allergic to the adhesive on the fentynal patchs and I would break out in big sores where the patches were on my arm. I tried moving the patch around to a different place everytime I changed the patch but that didnt seem to help. Good luck if yo decide to try it. Just remember that you may not have any reactions at all like I did. Some people have reactions and some people dont, it just all depends on the person.

Stay as far away from fent as you can!!! I had
ajor personality changes and it about ended my marriage. Also had severe anxiety attacks while on it-50mcg/hr. I ripped the patch off and went cold turkey and the withdrawls were the worse thing I have ever been through. I wouldn't even suggest it to my worse enemy! Good luck, but RUN AWAY from fent!
