Chronic Pain
"Was diagnosed with three degenerative discs that have now compressed on top of each other at L-3, 4 &amp; 5, creating horribly pinched nerves.  Started off with Vicodin, which helped for awhile.
In 2006 was switched to Dilaudid 2mg, then 4mg, currently taking 8mg/ 4 times daily.  Wow, what a great pain killer! With the Vicodin, it dulled the pain but with the dilaudid, it&#039;s completely gone.  Makes living life enjoyable again.  It&#039;s great not to be in constant pain anymore!"
