Anyone had any luck with alternative methods of pain relief during labor?
Posted by Admin in Pain Relief on May 11, 2012
im 20 weeks probably a little early to really have to worry about a birth plan but i know i would like to try to do it without epidural/demerol anyone have any experience with alternative methods of pain relief like lamaze/accupressure/hypnobirthing etc. ? did you find them effective or a waste of time and would reccomend against them?
Chosen Answer:
Didn’t use any of those methods or take any classes and went completely natural. Just go with the flow of the day(s), moan/groan through each contraction, walk when you can and lay down when you need to rest. Your body will let you know what you are capable of and trust yourself that you can do it if you have your mind set on natural – our bodies are designed for childbirth! Each pain has a purpose and brings you closer to seeing your beautiful baby. Good luck!

How soon after having 3 beers can I take Vicodin for back pain?
Posted by Admin in Vicodin Discussion on May 9, 2012
I had 3 beers while BBQing tonight and am considering taking a Vicodin for back and shoulder pain. All 3 beers were consumed in about a 3 hour time period, I finished my last beer about 2 hours ago, and I don’t feel any effects/drunkenness from the beer that I’ve consumed because I was eating the whole time. I DO NOT plan on drinking anymore alcohol tonight. Will taking a Vicodin now be OK?
Chosen Answer:
Take your Vicodin. Just expect to be really woozy. And only take ONE.
There’s no reason you should be in pain, but don’t make a habit of drinking and popping pills, okay? Today is an exception.

What are some of the side affects of coming down from a four year addiction to vicodin?
Posted by Admin in Vicodin Discussion on May 6, 2012
I have been on vicodin for four years for chronic pain.
I have been forced to reduce my pills greatly for an upcoming surgery. I have not felt this bad in a long time. Is this normal?
Chosen Answer:
Yes. It’s completely normal. Your body has become physically addicted to vicodin and now needs a certain amount of the drug just to feel normal. You are now having withdrawal symptoms. Personally, I think these symptoms will last longer than 4 days, but with that said, each day will get better and better, with less severe symptoms. I promise you it will get better….just keep up the good work….I know it’s tough.

What are the odds of a person with vicodin and soma getting off of them in a rehab facility that they chose?
Posted by Admin in Vicodin Discussion on April 21, 2012
The person has chronic pain after 2 neck surgeries within last 4 years, but realizes that she is going to lose her life and family family if she continues to stay stoned all of the time (especially on the soma). She chose a facility, but I’d like to know if others have experience in this area. I think she was taking about 10 soma and 15 – 20 vicodin, but hard to tell since addicts lie so much. Any experience in this area or data would be great. Thank you?
Chosen Answer:
Pain management and addiction can be tricky. If she wants to get clean, by all means, support her. But she will need alternate pain treatments. I would suggest she try accupunture, various physical therapies/messages, and naturopathic treatments. I’m sure it would be helpful if you got the information on local treatments for her.
Good luck.

Vicodin..??
Posted by Admin in Vicodin Discussion on April 14, 2012
How do you get a prescription of them???
they are the only thing that helps my back pain! But what if the doc tries to give me something else??
Chosen Answer:
I know how you feel it seems every time I throw my back out they always make me feel like I’m faking it to get pills……unfortunately alot of people do that. Vicodin is an addictive narcotic doctors don’t like to prescribe it for just moderate pain. I have found that my lower back pain is muscle related and my doctor prescribed me muscle relaxers which have helped a ton. Maybe just ask your doctor for a small prescription of Vicodin only for when you really need them.
