$5.00 a piece for Vic's!!!! Holy Cow!! I guess I'll have to remember that if I ever need some fast cash! I knew there was a demand for them on the street but thats just silly crazy! But, they do work for the pain!! I would ask your dr next time about them instead of the tylenol 3, the worst thing he could do is say no! My dr is so great about that kinda stuff! She even gave me three refills without me even having to ask her! I guess when I go in there double over, white as a sheet, blood pressure and heart rate elavated from the pain and looking 7 months pregnant from the bloating, she "gets it!"

Your doc is way cool. I do get refills on my T-3s every month, but I'm afraid that if I refill them too much before I'm supposed to, I'll get cut off.

$5 for vics is actually good! I've seen for them for $10 a pill. Methadose is $20 a pill and oxyconton 80's are about $40 here. But those last 2 don't help me so I'm not in the market for them. I did buy amitriptyline ("trips") for $2 a pill, but it's not like I hangout with dealers, I've just always known somebody somewhere who had pharmies up for sale.

Never thought I'd be without insurance and had to resort to a street pharmacist, but hey, you live long enough and lots of things are bound to happen!

They gave me those amitripylines when I had the RSD in my foot!! I'd never heard of them and I'm pretty up to date on my drugs! I took them for 2 days and stopped!! Its funny you called them "trips" because thats exactly how I felt! Like someone spiked my oj with LSD!!! That might have been fun 10 or 15 years ago but I just couldn't handle it now! It was pretty crazy. I was trying to drive to work and couldn't tell what lane the car next to me was in! I was freaking out being in my office alone and I've worked alone for 5 years!! I had the whole wavey, gravey vision and everything! I'm too old for that kind of stuff anymore! And, they didn't help my foot any, well maybe they did because I was to busy "tripping" on everything else to think about it!! I have a whole bottle, email me if you are interested in them, I was just going to dump them!!

Ola again,
Yech, sorry your cramps still aren't letting up.. Did the D never come, or just come and then go away too soon? Aren't you just so jealous of people who can just go when they wanna go, and never give pooping a second thought?? *mutters some profanities about said 'normal' people*

I wasn't sure about the codiene pills here, so I checked the big local drug store website and I didn't find anything, then I asked my friend who has been an oodles of pain killers and she says that if you want anything with codiene in Canada, you need a prescription. Panadol, though, does sound really familiar to me.. I am pretty sure you can get it otc in England.. but I guess that doesn't help you out much!! I thought I had brought some soluble panadol home with me from when I had throat ulcers (yowza) so I just searched my bathroom but I couldn't find it.. I think I musta left them behind, sorry!!

Now I have a question for you! I dunno if nausea is a problem for you, but I am SO NAUSEOUS today and I have a midterm exam at 4 (in 2 hours) so I'd like to get rid of it if I can.. gravol doesn't do anything for me, and neither does Pepto Bismol.. Any suggestions? This is just driving me crazy! Thanks!!

I hope your belly calms down, what a nightmare!

You know, it's funny because I'd only heard of them like 10 years ago because for a brief period I had a group of friends who used to take them recreationally. They were the ones who called them trips, but after I stopped hanging out with them I never heard of them again until I joined the boards! I don't think they're that common in drug circles, though. I don't think I'd ever take them to do anything but sleep though, because they're way too strong to be on in public!! But they work great for the fibro, so that's good for me!

I sent you an email!

*LAUGHING!* I always think I'm going to be found semi-conscious like that!!

I call them stomach aliens too!!!

I took the drugs to stop the attack and I feel sooooo much better now. But I know I'll just have to deal with a probable attack tomorrow so I'm just trying to enjoy the good feeling while it lasts!

Hey Steph! No D yet... I just gave up and took the drugs to stop the cramps. I'll just deal with it tomorrow if it comes back. Don't get me started about "normal" people!! What do people do with all that time they gain by not thinking about the next time they're going to poop??!

Panadol and paracodol I think are available in australia, and I'm sure I bought codiene over the counter 6 years ago while I was in Toronto, but I don't know if you still can. They market it as acetominophen plus codiene, that's all I remember.

Oh I hate nausea!! Can you drink some hot chamomille? That usually gets things settled for me. Also can you take a walk around? Sometimes walking also helps. Feel better!!!!!

Yep I do it too! Sucks when you are in a public place or when I'm at work cause our one bathroom has stalls so when I must to my "breathing" I have to do it very low or into my shirt sleeve. But when I'm at home....nothing stops the noise!

Heather that's too funny....was it a boy or a girl. I'll have to remember that one LOL
