Chronic Pain
"I have back problems and will eventually need surgery. I have degenerative disc disease. That&#039;s the easy way to explain it. In my case, I have bulging at L5-S1, spinal stenosis and a lot of arthritis and bone spurs. That&#039;s my lower back. I have a bulging disc, arthritis and scoliosis in my Thoracic. If my lower back isn&#039;t bothering me, my upper back is. Percocet 7.5 seems to be the perfect dose for me. I&#039;m prescribed to take it every 4 hrs. The thing that sucks is anytime I&#039;ve gone to the e.r. for something else, they dismiss me because I&#039;m already prescribed Percocet. My back pain has evolved around the Percocet so any added severe pain doesn&#039;t respond and ive recently started having kidney stones."
