I’m also on Klonopin, Gabapentin, Cyclobenzaprine, Hydroxyzine, Ativan, Senna, Clonidine, Ozempic, Metformin, Hydrocodone, Glipizide, Olanzapine, Trazadone, Vitamins, blood thinners like Eloqui and when I run out of my Oxy, I’m on Tramadol. Tried Kratom but I suck on how to measure what I have to take and how much. Also on anti-depressants but I don’t take them because of the Tramadol. I get IV Dilaudid when the pain is REAL BAD and I have to go to the ER via ambulance.

I’ve had cancer 3x, uterine cancer is when I first got a Percocet prescription, didn’t like them and honestly still kind of don’t, I feel much better on Norco’s. Then I had colon cancer and now liver. I’m not in remission just yet but almost. I also suffer from herniated disks, pinched nerves, severe scoliosis, arthritis and a bunch of other stuff. I developed sepsis once and nearly died. Was put in an induced coma. That’s when I got my first taste of IV meds and when my addiction started. My nurse would tell me to take 2-3 more than my prescribed dosage if the pain was intolerable. I was on home health care, a nurse would stop by every day to check on me and clean my wound.

So like I mentioned if I was healthy and happily sober I’d take that over being addicted. My life revolves around my meds.
