Hi kelligh-
I don't blame you for being scared..since many of the people who take vikes for pain-end up abusing them.
Maybe you can take them as needed..only when you are really in severe pain-have you spoke to your doc about any other alternatives?
If you didn't abuse the methadone maybe you will be ok w/ the hydrocodone.
Its a tough call-you could try it as needed but if you sense you"like them too much"..don't take them-and try another med.
Good luck-and stay well.
