New medicine for my neck.....

[jamsmom]

Well, I decided to take pain medicine from when I had kidney stones (Darvacet) and have had 3/4 bottle of wine. I am feeling better! I was sick and tied of my neck killing me. Plus, a few other things had aggitated me....

Please, Carol, no pain meds with alcohol, much less that much. Please be careful

If I had had darvacet & that much wine, I don't think I'd be able to sit up in a chair, let alone type!!

As Dan said, please be careful...that could be very dangerous. On the other hand, I'm glad you're not feeling any pain right now. Actually, I'm quite surprised your conscious at all!

 

[jamsmom]

It has been over several hours. The darvacet has not even made me sleepy....just dulled the neck pain enough.

Crappy days end better with some good wine I am talking 3 hours+ since I had my first glass



You are too sweet. I am behaving, though.

I'm new to the community board, but not to the DIS discussions. So for someone who doesn't know you...just some kind words. Please be careful mixing pain meds and alcohol. I know too well. I have chroinc pain (fibromyalgia, pinched nerves, herinated disk plus a long list of other problems)and take pain meds daily. I had to give up even a glass of wine here and there. We're all different, but I had a bad reaction. I would hate that to happen to someone else too.

Hope your neck pain gets better.

I'm a pharmacist and a neck pain sufferer, too.

Please, please, please -- never mix alcohol with Tylenol (and yes, Darvocet has tylenol in it -- the "cet" stands for acetaminophen/Tylenol). Tylenol is very hard on your liver and adding in alcohol and increase your chances for problems!

That's too dangerous, Jamsmom.

I am awake All is fine. I went to sleep around midnight and was awake from about 3-4am or so.

Hope you all have a great day.


Neck is back to feeling like crap again, but I don't want to take anymore of my Darvacet in case I need it in the future.

If I win that lottery, I'll buy you a new neck and that other request you made.

Browneyes- you are so sweet
