I'm recovering from my own similar issue, I don't want to talk about it, it's been grim and I stepped away from here to deal with it because I was losing my mind and being too much of a prick (even more than usual) under all the stress.
I'm still trying to get off the Oxys, addiction (even for genuine reasons) is a bitch.

But this isn't about me, it's about you and great to see you still this side of the ground.
God bless you brother.

Iccy's back

Not quite back, I'll just pop in now and then, I had some unpleasant personal issues to deal with and I thought it best to step away from forums for a while, I suppose we all react differently to our problems.
I just wanted to say hi to McSatan after his cancer.

I can't reply to personal messages for some reason, perhaps because it's a new account but thanks to everyone.
As I said, I don't want to make this about me, so I'm just saying hi.

Welcome back

Doesn’t sound like a lot of fun. Hope the curve is smooth and upward from here on in.

For you as well Iccy.

As above to both of you.

We missed you. You talked a load of bollox. But it was good old fashioned proper bollox

And what a lovely back. Everybody's always saying how glad they are to see the back of Iccy.

Ach, getting auld is a bastard, innit? Glad to see you're still around I sampled the lot, Oramorph, Fentanyl, Oxycodone and Oxycontin. Oxycodone was best but I was taking vast amounts as I got used to it, the cancer doc said it would be enough to kill or put into a coma non habitual users. I just stopped dead when the pain level dropped. Cold turkey isn't that bad, I've had worse man-flu, junkies are weak The GP had a fit when he found out, apparently you're supposed to be weaned off it with other medication, I just liberally applied bottles of Whyte & McKay

Wishing you both the best and glad you're both still around and, sometimes, posting shit/bollox/etc !!!

Extra thank yous for the list of accessible drugs - they'll go on my "to try next time" list since the conventional ones I've had (not for something as big as cancer of course) do next to nothing !! New list most appreciated !!

Throat cancer, malnutrition, sepsis and pneumonia. 18 stone to 9 stone. 8 weeks in hospital, blood transfusions, two pipes in my back to drain my lungs, pressure sore on my back down to the bone, drinking 80mg Oxycodone shots all day and night, IV antibiotics etc etc. I nearly died.

But I didn't. I'm back, baby

I'm glad you're ok. And good hair!

A mate of mine thought he had sciatica last year. I remember telling him to pull himself together, that's middle age. But it wasn't sciatica, it was cancer and it was everywhere. In about 6 weeks he was paralyzed from the waist down, dead within another six weeks or so, then we buried him. He was in his late 40s, teenage kids etc. Just goes to show.... life can be short and harsh.

Fabulous to hear from you. I hope all is well. Don't be a stranger.

Oh and V2? V9 more like! I'm sure you've had more strops than I've had big wanks. And that's a lot.

OK would be stretching it. I get full PIP and am classed as disabled for two years. I genuinely am fucked. But I'll get better. Physio stings

I seem to be missing the addiction gene, plus I'm not too keen on the opiate fuzzies in spite of several US Dr's prescribing ridiculous amounts of the stuff.
It started by some chap prescribing Percocet 5's after a bike wreck in '05... which didn't do anything. So instead of saying take 2 at a time, or giving me 10's, he suggested he put me on Methadone. I told him to FO & after a discussion about other meds he ended up giving me 240 straight codeine 30's a month for over a year. The most I ever took in any month was 15 or 16 so I ended up with a stash of the damn things.
Then another Dr gave me 60 Perc 10's for a one month deal, they lasted me 5 years.
Now I have Codeine, Percocet, Tramadol & Norco in my stash. It's a good thing I'm a fine upstanding citizen, because the Codeine alone are worth almost $15k to the wrong people (the total cost of the prescriptions to me was about $150).

Just popped in to see what was happening and this is the first post that drew my attention. Glad you're on the mend mate!
