Started Vicodin (hydrocodone) four months ago for pain and I am trying to work out whether what I am feeling now is tolerance or something else. Cold and heat sensitivity turned out to be part of it and is barely mentioned anywhere.
How do you tell the difference between the drug working and just a good week?
Interdose restlessness is distinct from the original symptom and worth naming separately.
I would stop trying to convey how bad it is and start saying what you want them to do.
Changing prescriber does not reset anything, and people discover that the hard way.
Is it normal to feel worse before better? Nobody told me that.
Access to mugs should be on the clinical questionnaire. How long have you been on hydrocodone?
Following this because I am in the same place and have no idea what to ask at the appointment.
Ten percent cuts, of the current dose not the original. That is the arithmetic that keeps it survivable.
My pharmacist has become my actual doctor and I am at peace with it.
Fifteen years of this and the function column is the only one that changed anything for me. Also, one page of history, printed, handed over at the start. It changes the appointment.
Sorry for the basic question, but how do you actually start one of these diaries?

Same here.
