   Can I do it alone? (Addiction & Recovery board)

8th September 2006
I take 20 mgs of oxycontin every 8 hours .I've done this for the last two years. For breakthrough pain I take oxycodone hcl 15 mgs every 4 to six hours.Most days I usually take up to three of those a day. I also take 100 mgs of topamax daily. 10 mgs of flexeril three times a day as needed. I also take ambien cr if i need it ,which I never do.Before bed I take requip for restless leg syndrome.All this pain medication by the way is from two cervical fusions complicated by scar tissue and bone spurs.I have two herniated disc in my lower back. Carpal tunnel in my right arm and hand.Im in a fog all day, I want to stop taking so much pain medication.If I feel like I cant tolerate the pain I'll start the meds again.I want to remember peoples names again.I want to think of something else besides the date when those pills run out.I want to stay awake more than 5 hours a day.I want my life back. I want me back. Can I do it alone? I'm scared.
