Answer 1

Hello,
I have had back and neck problems for years. The pain was so severe that i was hospitalized a couple of weeks ago. Morphine did not work. So doctors put me on Gabapentin 300mg 3xdaily and arcoxia(Etoricoxib) 60mg once a day along with Lansoprazole to protect the stomach. These tablets concentrate on nerve root pain etc. I found these to be very good. Then when the pain is very bad mix in your zydol or probably more effective is co-codomol as i find Zydol(Tramadol make me feel ill and tired and dont treat the root of the pain)
Please try these and i hope they work for you.

There are numerous analgesic medications and methods which decrease the level of pain perception. However, usually, short of complete general anesthesia, few patients ever feel they get adequate pain control regardless of the medications.

It is incumbant on your providers to give you a realistic expectation of what can be expected with medications. Additionally, there is often a need to manage the whole patient with not only medications, by psychological support, and nonpharmacologic pain control methods.

If your pain is not being managed, and you have not seen a specialist in pain medicine, you need a referral. Chronic pain, can not be managed like post operative pain, and the medications must be managed differently.

After 10 years, your issue is less about the injury, and more about the body's adaptation to the medications and the pain response. This must be managed differently than just taking a different pill.

Incidentally, I have searched the US/UK online and published dfatabases and can find no analgesic medication called Zoydol. Do you mean Zydol XL 200?

Answer 3

well, kinda what the first person said, but i think it's stupid to snort things. it hurts and it stuffs up ur nose lol. crush it up and put it is a capsule because the capsule dissolves fast, the powder will dissolve faster. that would make the effects stronger because the pain killer is ingested faster. not everyone is affected by pain killers the same way, so it's probably not that abnormal that your kid isn't being knowcked out by them. painkillers don;t usually last for more than a few hours. you could ask a doctor if you could put him on painkillers during the day and try ambien at night because the other prescriptions aren't helping him sleep. i'm not a pharmiscist or a doctor or anythig in the medical field, but i know quite a few things about things like that. i don;t know how realiable my answer is though.

Answer 4

Problem w/ most painkillers is that our bodies (and brains) get used to them so we keep upping the dose. Haven't heard of zoydol, but I have taken MSER (Morphine Sulfate Extended Release) successfully for a number of years (too many!). The key to not bumping up the dose is to take a "drug holiday" at least once a year of at least two weeks' duration. It's a miserable two weeks, trust me, but your doctor will love to hear you say those words. If, after your holiday, you still get no relief from what you take, have a serious-as-cancer talk with him. If he's unwilling to prescribe morphine or duragesic patches (fentnyl) or dilaudid (stay away from demerol--your body gets used to it way too quickly!!), ask him for a referral to a pain management clinic. Most docs in the states will have you sign a "Pain management contract" which lets them off the hook if you become addicted. You will become physically addicted, plain and simple. If you can manage the holidays, there's a good chance you won't become psychologically addicted. Sending you soothing energy and empathy--I live in the same zip code as you and others.

Answer 5

Snap! Have to say though that I've been getting dihydrocodeine which has its moments but like everything else it loses its effectiveness after a while, so I keep upping the dose to the point where I am now taking double what the doctor prescribes. I now get earache from my doctor because he says that I shouldn't be dependent on them but I just stick in the scripts and sod him. He wants to give me antidepressants but I told him to F*** off because I am in pain not depressed, well I am that too, but they don't seem to have a problem handing out prozac at the drop of a hat, but can do nothing but moan at me because I refuse to change painkillers to one which makes him feel ok. Man you have my unadulterated sympathy, I know that you don't want it, but you have it anyway. Best of luck, and I hope that you can find some relief.

Answer 6

You have to find a doctor who's not afraid to give you the pain meds you so need. I'm also a sufferer of Chronic Pain, and finally found a doctor. I'm on Morphene Sulfate and Fiorinal w/Codeine.

Look in the book for a "Pain Insititute," or something like that. No one should have to live in pain today. I wish you the best of luck. You can ask your doctor if he knows of a doctor who will give you the stuff that'll work. :)

Answer 7

Oxycodone works well, as does Dilaudid and Demerol.

Answer 8

If you find something let me know. I'm in the same shape ,have been for years.
