Thanks for the concern, everyone!
I've been trying different things over the weekend, but have figured out that the Oxycontin makes my head spin and my ears ring even without the Oxycodone. Alone, it doesn't manage the pain at all, just makes me dizzy. With Oxycodone, it helps a lot with the pain, but makes me sick too. I don't understand this, since I was taking it in the hospital the whole time without feeling dizzy. It feels like being overmedicated.
It doesn't seem right that I'm left here floundering around in the dark; I managed to walk around the block today, but had increasing pain with muscle spasms in the back and ribs the whole time. Why can't they do something about that? Someone here said Valium helped with their cramps... this is just so discouraging.
A pain management doctor was also suggested, but it takes a while to get in to see them.
I''ll talk to the surgeon's office tomorrow, and hope they help me. I only have enough Oxycodone to last until 4 pm tomorrow; they won't leave me without meds at all! I'm so worried - I've slept through my meds before and the feeling is incredibly bad.
Wish me luck tomorrow! Yeah!
