Eggster, I would not be so worried about the hydrocodone as much as I would be about the acetamenaphen along with those 15mgs. ACP will KILL you a whole lot quicker than any opioid/opiate. Personally, I love them, and feel that they have a legitimate use as an antidepressant med. However, and it's a BIG however, the tendency for abuse is sooooo high that no one will really look at it seriously as an AD. I would ask what antidepressants you are currently taking. Maybe a dopaminergic like Wellburtin might be of use to you. I like to play with the lovely poppy flower and its man-made extract when available, so I understand your cravings. However, I would STRONGLY urge you to consider the possible PERMANENT liver damage you may face by taking 700+mg of ACP every 2 hours. That *WILL* kill you eventually. If you must take them chronically for pain, ask for Percalone or Oxcycodone that does not have any ACP. Good luck at getting it though. Also you may consider opiate/ibupro. compounds.
