Drug help


Jackofalltrades

Recommended Posts

So surgery was been a week ago and though I'm blessed at home I'm still in a lot of pain. I generally steer clear narcotics, but now I don't have anything strong enough.

I have Oxycodone, loritab and flexoril, the muscle relaxer. None of these are helping my pain or knocking me on my ass.

Any suggestions on what I should ask the Dr for.

Congrats to me for finally starting a thread where the huddle really excells.

When I had my shoulder surgery last December the doc gave me quite a few things, including Oxycontin that did literally nothing for me. Maybe it was just the dosage, but none of the pain meds they gave me helped at all.

Fortunately my main issue was sleeping, as the pain wasn't all that bad in general. Talk to your doc and tell him what you've got isn't working.

mmm...I love me some demerol...but have limited experience with most of the other strong stuff. Unfortunately, I think you are going to have to deal with the narcotics for a while to manage the pain and then hopefully ween yourself as soon as possible from them. Living in pain sucks ass.

    • I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
