Scared Wife;
I certainly can understand your situation, and I know what I put my dear wife through which has some parallel aspects to yours. Also, having lived through my mess on your husbands side of the street I would say you have every reason to feel trepidation given some of your husbands mannerisms and recent habitual changes. I would also say there is always more to the story and it would seem; you have been very patient with this nasty mess so if there is a way to get the hubby to open up to you the details you learn might have a significant impact (plus or minus) on current state of affairs between the two of you.
One more thought I’d like to throw out; the pills you described may or may not be opiate based meds based on your brief description. I guess the only positive way would be having a pharmacists or chemical analysis center performe analysis on the pills. I know many here seem to think most of the pills are opiate based but I did a quick search in a Pill Identification site and the pills you describe with the GG 225 & GG 229 may not be opiate based.
For example:
GG 225 could be (based on the Pill identification site) Promethazine hydrochloride tablets are from a group of medicines called phenothiazines, however, it is also part of the family of sedating antihistamines.
GG229 could be (based on the Pill identification site) sosorbide dinitrate (ISDN) which is used primarily to prevent and treat angina and in the treatment of acute heart attacks and heart failure.
Oxycontin pills (brand version) are round and will have an OC on one side and the numerical strength on the other side such as 10 or 20 or 40 or 80. The coloring is white, pinkish, goldish and greenish.
The pill with the V on it may not be Valium or Vicodin. Usually with Vicodin the word Vicodin is fully spelled out on the pill. With Valium the brand pill has a V hollowed out of the middle of the pill, no V on the pill.
Guess my point here is don’t base all your opinions on the pills, use all of the details and information you have and are gathering to formulate your path to resolution whatever that works out to be.
My heart goes out to you and I pray you have a happy ending.
