I am wondering about how long it takes to get off the pain meds. I have cut back from 2 every 4 hours to 1 every 4 hours. The oxycodone is hard to keep your bowels moving even if you are taking the magnesium and softeners without worry. I got 4 days worth of Valium for the muscle spams which actually helped me more than the pain meds. I was told that I couldn't get the Valium and will be given more oxy and then I will move to a hydrcodone soon. Did anyone else fund muscle relaxers helped more than the strong pain meds and what is the average time o be on pain meds. I really hate taking them and not sure why muscle relaxers aren't given for a longer period of time. I was able to walk much farther with the relaxers than with the pain meds. I am up to 6 blocks of walking per day. So very happy. Does anyone have a recumbent trike - if so how long before you could ride. Thanks
