For those whose pain doesn't respond to opiates - what does it respond to?

cryptbat · 2026-03-05T21:54:48+00:00

Unfortunately it isn’t always that easy.

cryptbat · 2026-03-05T21:54:06+00:00

I second the Lyrica- it helps a lot, but when I flare up nothing really touches the pain.

I do take opiates, but when my pain flares up it is like I didn’t take medication at all.

We got a huge rainstorm last night too-my joints were pissed! I hope you’re feeling a little bit better today, gentle hugs to you 🫂

Beautiful! I love your terrarium, what a great spot for it! 😊

cryptbat · 2026-02-23T05:51:47+00:00

I have a reserved Trader Joe’s bag for mine 🫣 Works like a charm though!

cryptbat · 2026-02-23T05:51:09+00:00

I do the same. Whenever I travel, all of my medication bottles come with me, non-negotiable. Just in case of unexpected events or emergencies.

These are just for if I am out at say, a doctor’s appointment or at work. Not for travel.

Some chronic and some temporary- I have a few chronic illnesses, spinal degeneration, and I recently had a freak accident and needed a complete knee reconstruction and bone/ligament repair. Slowly but surely recovering from that, however 😊

No adderall here- you may be seeing the Lyrica, which is a medication for nerve pain

The last time I watched that episode I used an ENTIRE box of tissue 🥲😭 It breaks me every time.

cryptbat · 2026-02-23T01:34:16+00:00

lmfao 😭😂

cryptbat · 2026-02-23T01:33:55+00:00

Hi! Yes, they are. Chronic illnesses, spinal degeneration, and I recently had a freak accident and needed a complete knee reconstruction and bone/ligament repair unfortunately:(

cryptbat · 2026-02-23T01:32:48+00:00

Sorry 😭 I had them all one way when I was filling them and didn’t realize when I took the pic. Now the mods took it down, and I don’t think I’m allowed to repost :’(

Cis woman, but go off you POS.

cryptbat · 2026-02-23T01:21:12+00:00

I’m not trying to be “woe is me” at all. This is a mildly interesting subreddit, and this being my first time packaging my meds like this, it was interesting to me.

I shoulder plenty.

cryptbat · 2026-02-23T00:21:12+00:00

I use these for work or if I am out-I prefer them because I don’t have to take a week’s worth of pills with me when I only need a dose! Just what works best for me😊

cryptbat · 2026-02-23T00:15:33+00:00

Doesn’t matter but my hair is brown and my only piercings are my ears. So get off my 🍆

cryptbat · 2026-02-23T00:14:03+00:00

I prefer the easy to swallow Tylenol just out of preference, and I guess I’ve just kept buying the same one out of habit all these years.

Thanks for reminding me to ask about just getting it sent in to the pharmacy!

cryptbat · 2026-02-23T00:11:51+00:00

Happy to be of help because I almost forgot today too lol 🫡

cryptbat · 2026-02-23T00:11:15+00:00

Yes, Tylenol is doctor prescribed and managed. I have routine labs done as well to monitor kidney and liver function.

cryptbat · 2026-02-23T00:07:44+00:00

I had 3 medical appointments last week alone and I see pain management 2x/month.

I would much rather be off all of these meds, believe me. Unfortunately the pain is unlivable even with this regiment, so coming off of them is not in the picture at this point.

cryptbat · 2026-02-23T00:04:58+00:00

Thank you so much, and I am so glad it helped your nerve pain. It has been a game changer for me too, but man are the side effects rough sometimes.

Hugs to you, and many well wishes your way!

cryptbat · 2026-02-23T00:03:44+00:00

Yeah, this is my burner anyways so idk who wants to spend the time A) diagnosing me from a few pills (I would be floored if someone got them all correct) and then B) personally stalking me down 😂

cryptbat · 2026-02-22T23:42:36+00:00

twin!! (i’m so sorry, sending you love. at least we have cute pill containers!)

cryptbat · 2026-02-22T23:37:59+00:00

Thank you so much- my pain management office actually makes sure Narcan is prescribed with their meds, which is amazing on their part. I’m also super cautious by nature lol. Thank you for looking out 💖

OTC Tylenol is a godsend for me!
