> no- not really- i just tried to understand the not understandable calculater at some site and have been taking kadian and avinza. feeling bad most of the time. too much pain so i couldn't do anything- not even eat or try to go through the trouble of making anything bc all i can think about is how much it hurts.
> then the meds i took started to work - for a while it was ok- not taking all the pain away though and when i added more that i thought was right - it wasn't. All last night i was too groggy and that terrible feeling in the pit of your stomach when you take too much pain meds.

> kerriaI think pain is bad as it begins to wear you down mentally and makes me depressed.
So I'm thankful that pain meds are available for relief.My wife can always tell when my meds are working by my moods.
My ortho doc only gives me enough meds for 12 hours so laying in bed in pain makes it hard to sleep. I use the meds during the day when I need to around.
I will try to find out the conversion thing.
