HadIt.com Elder Pete53 Posted February 14, 2007 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted February 14, 2007 I was given hyrocodone for tooth problem but discovered it takes the pain away for neuropathy in my feet. My feet are better than they have been in years. I wonder if I can get my Doc to prescribe one to go to bed on at night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder john999 Posted February 14, 2007 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted February 14, 2007 Pete If will work for a while and then you have to increase the dose. Also you will become dependent if you use it on a daily basis. I am dependent on percoset now and I trying to wean myself off it. Right now I am going through minor withdrawl symtoms. If you don't absolutely need the vicodin don't start. The long acting morphine is a better drug but it will turn your turds into concrete blocks. Hydrocodone also caused me to have mood swings. We all react differently. It does help with foot pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a Dr. tell me to take it like it was candy before I was diagnoissed with fibro, yes you can get very dependent on it and most times it will not help for certain pain. My pain was still there I got very dependent, mood swings and drepression( to the point of trying to end it all ) before I got off of them. I find that the best pain medication is neurotin, but that is my feeling on it. IF you are taking vicodin be very careful like John999 said " WE All REACT DIFFERENTLY" JohnM's Wife Dianne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
