Getting My Pain Dr To Upgrade Me From Vicodin 10mg

Updated

I have low chronic back pain. My pain doctor has had me on vicodin 10mg/325 for almost a year now. I take two pills in the morning and two in the evening (4aday). Since I have been on them for so long, I feel like I am building a tolerance to them Once I tell my doctor that I think I need something stronger, what do you think he will upgrade me to? I really don't want him to give me more of these a day because of all the Tylenol in these things ... I know around 4000 mg a day is the danger limit, so I'm hoping he switches me to one of the 15 mg pills that have no Tylenol in it Just wondering if anyone else has had experience like this with their pain dr. Thanks in advance.
