Pain
"I have cervical stenosis.  I can live with the varying levels of pain and discomfort through the day as long as I&#039;m able to move around and change positions.  But lying down in bed and trying to sleep was a serious problem for me.  I couldn&#039;t fall asleep until I was really exhausted and even then I was wakened after an hour or less by pain.

My doctor prescribed Percocet 5/325.  The full tablet was a bit strong but it did the trick.  I fell asleep after ten minutes and slept for six straight hours.  I then split the tablets and take one ten minutes before lying down.  That gets me to sleep and I sleep for about four hours.  When I wake up (usually in pain) I take the other half and I&#039;m good for the day.  That&#039;s been my regimen for two years."
