Hi Everyone I've just gotten home from the hospital w infection in my leg. That was my second trip with a blood clot in my left leg.I take a low dose of vicoden 1 or 2 times a day but its getting harder to get the vicoden, no refills & have to go every month for a script. The vicoden only takes the edge off. Nothing has ever taken away my pain. I had a left glutieal skin flap done in November. I spent all last summer in bed so this summer I can be up.

Next week, Wednesday, I'm going to see my pain Doctor to be taken off the morphine because it simply isn't working any more. Dose anybody have any suggestion of a very strong pain med? My pain is from scoliosis, a syrinx, and arthritis in my spine. { I also take 500mgs of Gabapentin, 10mgs Valium} Bobbie Smile Everyday
