"i would be in bed all day without this medicine. i have tried a lot of pain pills and never really got much relief. i have a.l.s. and this medicine has made me be able to get up and do things, which i wasn&#039;t able to do before i was on this medicine. i could not even get out of bed without such bad pain. at least now i can enjoy what time i have with my family without being in such severe pain and still i have pain even with oxycontin i never get pain free but it is tolerable with this drug. it was not even tolerable with others i have tried in the past."
