I was going to pain managment after my spinal fusion 6 months ago and was taking oxycontin 40 twice daily with pecocet twice also. The bad thing is that my pain was still getting worse so I am home from surgery #2 just 10 days now, I had a degenerative taken out and a artificial one put in, this time they cut me open from the front to get the disc out but I am having surgery AGAIN in two weeks so that he can cut my back open again to extend my screws and rods to hold that new disc. Bad thing is my doctor said I am addicted to the pain meds cause I had to have so much pain med after surgery cause my tolerence is now high, so even though I'm having a third surgery in two weeks he is really cutting my pain meds way down and I am really sufering do to the pain!!!To me 3 back surgerys in 9 months is alot to go through and without my pain meds at this point I dont know what I would do, but I see that my doctor wants me off them now and I am hurting more than ever right now, thinking about talking to another doctor about it, I dont know what to do at this point? I still have 30 metal stapels in my stomach that have to come out, not looking forward to that either! :confused: Now all I'm taking is oxycontin 20 twice daily with two percocets, I was taking double this before surgery?
