"i&#039;ve taken oxyfast for 18 months now for treatment following a severe auto accident (i suffered multiple herniation&#039;s in my neck and back, torticollis, jaw dislocation, head trauma, right rotator cuff and right hand ligaments permanently scarred.  it took 4 years for me to succumb to taking this medication because of all the bad publicity. i was introduced to it by people who eventually suffered severe addictions.  i&#039;m happy to say even though i&#039;m prescribed over 200 mg per day i only take it for breakthrough pain to relieve the torture in my head (supposedly cluster headaches). i can stop for weeks at a time and am very thankful it doesn&#039;t affect me negatively (i.e. withdrawals)."
