I've been prescribed oxy a couple of times for minor injuries. I cannot function on oxy so I've never taken more than one or two of them. If a doctor offers me oxy, I flat out refuse.
Oxycodone should never be a default medication. Suffering through the pain of recovery from an injury or surgery is better than what I understand the suffering from oxy is.
- runnerup 4y agoFor me I was not a fan of opiates when I was in intense physical pain while recovering from surgery. I stopped early and that’s why I had so much left over. However, it was an ideal drug for emotional pain in later years and I was extremely functional on it. Much more functional than I was sober.
- cryptonector 4y agoI will never get it. Oxy does nothing good for me and I would never want it. The two times I accepted a prescription for it I tossed it all.
- prmoustache 4y agoI think that culture of medicine in the US where if you are injured or sick docs have to give you something to relieve all pain, at the cost of feeling totally numb or be a zombie, is totally wrong. Obviously pain medication needs to exist but they don't have to be that powerful. It is normal feel pain through recovery and puts good markers on your own improvement process. How are people supposed to listen to their body signals if we numb everything?
