Dilaudid is FABULOUS. I'd be a happy woman if I could take that all the time. It was the only effective pain-killer I received after my hysterectomy in 2006. It not only killed the pain, but got me mobile again. The nurses were pushing morphine, Demerol, and codeine (when they remembered to medicate me at all). None of that stuff worked. The pharmacist put me on Dilaudid finally. It got rid of the pain without making me high.
I don't know if it's a drug to which one would eventually develop a tolerance, but I never found out--they refused to prescribe it more than a few days. But it sure did the job.
Damn the DEA! Opioids are wonderful things.
