Ready 20

Hubby and I will be starting Contrave next weekend. The med is over $200 but we both work with the City so our Health insurance covered most of the cost and then our pharmacy used a $10 coupon so it's costing us $70. Looking forward to sharing results. Hoping I have the same or better results as when I took Phentermine. I was on it for 6 mos and lost 68lbs. Because of long hours on my job I couldn't exercise but was very strict and stayed on an 800 Cal diet. What is everyone else doing/eating? ## Hello, Rosie! How are you? I just want to make sure that you're aware of some of the possible side effects of Contrave, as listed by the FDA, you may experience nausea, dizziness, headache, nervousness, insomnia and anorexia. Can anyone that's on it chime in to answer her questi...

I just saw this. FDA rejects Endo's deadline.

After stopping loestrin fe 1/20 how soon can I get my next period? Please help. We are ready for a baby. (: ## Hello, Lala! How are you? It's difficult to say, because it will usually take awhile for your body to balance your hormones back out on its own and for ovulation to occur. You should consult your doctor to be sure, but it's usually said to take about 3 months for things to get back to normal and for you to be able to get pregnant. Are there any other questions or concerns?

I have been on the butrans 20 mcg patch for 3 months and am getting ready to switch to the fentanyl 25 mcg patch. Will I get same amount of or better pain relief? Also, my Dr refuses to keep me on this patch. Is it wise to even start it then? ## Hi Roxie, To my knowledge, Fentanyl is the strongest prescribed pain reliever available. So my theory is that it should provide a greater sense of pain relief. However, because we all react/respond differently (and since no two meds are created equally), the only way to know for certain would be to try them both first-hand and make an assessment after giving your body some time to adjust to any changes. On the other hand, if your doctor is only planning on prescribing Fentanyl temporarily (i.e. giving you a band-aid and ripping it off) I don...

So I took Serophene (clomid) in 2012 and and conceived a beautiful baby girl. So now I'm ready to have another baby and I was given Furtile 50mg. I'm slightly scared because it's not what I originally took. I was wondering if anyone else took Furtile 50 mg? If so, please share your experience. It will be nice to know others are taking the same thing. ## Hi mama! I just received mine in the mail today and am gonna start them tonight cd 2-6 at the 50mg dose. There is another thread on here that's 7 pages long and has lots of others who have taken it successfully! I was so worried it would be sugar pills or worse, but it sounds like this is the real deal. Keep me posted on how you do on it and I'll do the same! Good luck! ## Thanks I definitely will. I'm just waitin...

I was attacked in 2011 before that I had to have multiple surgeries life saving surgeries. I was almost a qurdopalegic I have had two major surgeries and now I am getting ready to have my 20 th suefwey a hip replacement. I have already had my right hip replaced now it is my left hip . I have had epidurals for my pain. It did not help ! I am in constant pain 24/7 level 10 ! These new laws that limit people like me keeping us away from our pain medication is criminal! These laws need to be changed . People who have abused them , people like me can not be judged for other people's mistakes . After my hip replacement they are going to put a pain blocker in my spine . I chose that instead of having to have to take pain mess for the rest of ,my life . These laws need to change !

I have a rx for Prednisone 20mg to take e 1 tablet daily with a quantity of 5 pills. I took 3 tablets in a 24 hour period, leaving me 2 pills to take. This is to get me ready for cancer surgery on my mouth to make sure my lungs are clear. What should I do? Do I take 1 pill for the next 2 days? or skip some days and try and follow the 5-day regiment? I feel like a fool. Thank you for your help. ## Jody, please check with your prescribing doctor, as they may need to prescribe a couple more pills for you to take, before your surgery, so you get the full five days of dosing. Prednisone may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, acne, weight changes, insomnia, and mood changes. Ref: Prednisone Information Are you on any other medications?

A month ago I had BR surgery I was given a script of Percocet a week before so I'll have it ready. Surgery was painful thank God for Percocet. From December 10 2014 and its January 20 2015. Last night was my first night without Percocet I'm just tired of it. I had a hard time falling asleep it was a horrible night. ## Yes, if you've been taking it regularly for a period of time, it is normal to experience some mild withdrawal effects, if you stop taking it abruptly. Along with insomnia, stopping the Percocet may also cause rebound pain, headache, nervousness, and diarrhea. Are you on any other medications? How is the surgical recovery going?

I've been on Vicodin, Norco,and now Tylenol 3 for pain. I'm getting ready to have knee surgery and than back surgery. I'VE BEEN TAKING THESE PAIN PILLS SINCE MARCH 2014. How do I tell my dr. that the Tylenol 3 is not strong enough and I'm taking more than 2 a day. I ALSO HAVE HEP C+, WHAT SHOULD I be taking/ ## Hello, Cindy! How are you? The Codeine in these Tylenol formulations is actually a very weak opiate, you'd need 33.33mgs of it to equal each 5mgs of Hydrocodone in the Norco. The FDA lists these medications as being narcotic analgesics, so they have the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Since you have Hep C, you likely should avoid the medications that contain Acetaminop...

My 21 year old son is on Effexor xr, 75 mg's per day. He has been on this drug for almost 9 months. He has gained 20 pounds or so, he is not motivated at all about anything. He can't work. He is not suicidal, but it is not helping him. His girlfriend is ready to leave him. I am at a loss. He has what seems to be brain zaps from what I have read. He calls it electricity jolts. Please send me some information so that I can figure out what to do to help him. He will not do anything about it . He never sleeps at night. He sleeps all day long. He takes the medicine at bedtime. Thank you ## Hello, As a patient with depression, I have taken Effexor on many occasions. I never had a problem with Effexor increasing my appetite or weight. But it did stop working after a few months. Your so...

My partner and I are ready to start trying to conceive. Just not this month. We plan to start trying as of August on my next ovulation and however long it takes. I use this app that tells me my high fertility days and i have been tracking it with test strips and it's pretty accurate. I had unprotected intercourse on Saturday, 7/18 and my first day of high fertility started on 7/20, however i am aware that sperm can live in you for up to 5 days. If i take a plan b pill, it will either delay ovulation or stop the egg from releasing. Will this affect my ovulation window for next month? If the egg is stopped from releasing, what happens to the egg? ## Hello, Ang! How are you? Any egg that isn't released is harmlessly reabsorbed into your body. However, if you're trying to get pr...

I've been on methadone liquid now for roughly 3 years, though 60 is the highest ive ever taken, 10 being lowest and it amazes me how strong and powerful this stuff is. I swear i dropped down to 20 and was ready to switch over to subutex, but right at the last minute i bottled it despite my doctor really saying do it, best move you will ever make, but my reasons were i really was so depressed, sweating profoundly, no sleep.

However, as I said, they are slight and your body will usually adjust after about a week or so. How long have you been taking this new one? This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit...

Hi there, this is for the people who are on methadone / or Suboxone. I've been on methadone for an opiate addiction, for a year now. My clean date is feb 2, 2015. At first, methadone was the best thing that had ever happened to me. I finally felt normal, and thought I was ready to get my life back on track. Well.. What a lie that was. I was at 75 mlgs of methadone from February 2015-August 2015, then started tapering off at 5 mlgs a week. I have a rapid metabolizer, so methadone never lasted longer than 10 hours in my system. Now I'm at 30 mlgs and I'm living in hell! I'm in constant withdrawal, body aches, sweating, hot /cold, emotional, aggressive... Etc. All I want is to feel normal again, but don't want to be tied on a leash to the methadone anymore! People say t...

I have been on Multac for 3 yrs now. They put me on it after an ablation and I've only had one episode since and it went back into normal rythym just as the er doc was getting ready to hook me up to an IV. I've only had a total of 4 episodes in 4 years. But my heart rate jumps to 200+ when I do. My Dr was going to take me off of it but then I had that last episode and he has kept me on it. I want to go off and would like to know what might happen if I do stop after taking it for so long. I am a 60 yr old female with no other heart problems. I have experienced fatigue, hair loss and weight gain since being on Multaq, but that might also be age related??? I really would like to see how I do without it, but I or maybe no one knows the effects if stopping after being on it for so lo...
