Hey guys! Thanks for all the posts. I love reading everyones replies. Its amazing how out of control this can get. My reasoning for not taking OVER 3 a day too often is because I am afraid of it not working anymore. YES i do have chronic back and hip spasms. Right now its so hard to sit here. I was down to 2.5, but yesterday I HAD to take 3.. Thats why I ordered the trigger point injections for my back. I want to keep this pain controlled!! I also want to keep this "Liking of my painkillers" controlled. I have never went doctor shopping in my life and dont see how I could with a baby. Thats amazing how crazy it can get. I know my problem pales in comparison to many on here, but I still feel like I SHOULDNT LIKE THEM this much. I not only love the fact that it helps my pain, relaxes muscles, BUT ALSO GIVES ME ENERGY!! Thats not cool. If I werent in pain, I really believe this wouldnt be an issue. When I called my Neuro yesterday noone said anything about the letter. They are so crazy busy over there, I sometimes think he would forget! They were actually happy to hear from me and were telling me not to be afraid of the injections for my back etc. I;ve been seeing this doctor for 3 years now. I stopped for 9 months during my pregnancy. I felt so good!! I did take alot of tylenol when my back hurt. Before then he had me on ultracet and I would take 2-3 a day. It never got out of control. But deep down, I so wished I have vico because I had it before when I had knee surgery. I always remembered how much I liked it.
I need to kick myself in the butt and get this straightened out. He gave me 100 and it says take it every 6 hours. That means 4 a day? I am not sure how long this prescription lasts. I remember from the dentist I could refill it in 5-6 days when I was getting 20. I was taking 4 then because the dentist slipped and I had a huge hole in my cheek. OMG THAT WAS SO PAINFUL. SEE I do have legitimate reasons. The dentist didnt see it as a problem. He would actually Joke and say "c'mon ker, you know you like these!" I would say of course it helps the pain THAT YOU PUT ME IN (but also makes me clean, cook, play, work, sing, dance, exercise) LOL.. I know its not funny but it kinda is. Its crazy. I feel like right now I CAN control this. I am so proud that I already see that it can become a problem. I am making sure that I dont go over and take too many. I dont want to screw myself buy trying to refill something thats not ready to be refilled, or calling another doctor etc..

Yes its also mental. I have anxiety and mild depression. I like how it makes me smile and feel energized. but sometimes it can make me PISSED..
