Oh, I hope you feel better soon! once it's out of your system what's the plan for pain relief? That is, if it's not the Oxycontin that's causing pain?
I'm providing feedback on draft coursework right now (gone are the days when you just wrote the coursework without any input from the lecturer) before tidying my desk and going home to the parents tomorrow.

I hope you have a good christmas, in spite of the withdrawl, a better new year and a fantastic 2010.

Poor you. Hope things start to pick up soon. Coming off Oxi can be a "cast iron bitch" or so I'm told. Just one thing though. The mechanism that makes them slow release might also make it look like they're passing through undigested, so you might not be missing as much of the oxycodone as you think based on the "observable evidence". They film coat the tablets with a barrier that resists digestion, but laser cut tiny pores in to let the drugs out. When they first used this technique it was common for punters to come back and say they weren't working because the indigestible coats came out looking pretty much the same. Since some of the early pills were angina pills it was pretty easy to tell if they were still working (which by and large they were) by checking if the punters had seen any worsening of their angina.

Hope that the withdrawal doesn't spoil things for Christmas for you.

If you'd like some wrist warmers just drop me a line and it shall be done.

I am also a grumpy psycho bitch and a weeping wreck. But no oxycontin to blame. Just damned dark days and bloody christmas.

And a broken fridge.

Hope you're feeling better soon BG.
My chemo sessions coincide with Christmas and I've just realised I have 10 anti-nausea pills to last the next five days of pill swallowing.(that's five doses)
I hope my GP can prescribe them.

Merry Christmas anyway and wish you all the best for 2010
