"i have been dealing with lower back and leg pain for the last year and half. i was started with oxys 5mg. it took awhile to figure out how much i needed to make through a day. it could be anywhere from 2 to 8 daily and never had any problem working. my script was change to percs. 5mg. and they seem to work a lot better and only needed at most 4 per day, but i had a hard time trying to work. my last script was for endocet 10mg. i took one before i went to bed and the next day waking up was real hard to do things like talking. i&#039;m only using a 1/2 of one at a time at this point and on a good day just a half on a bad day 1 &amp; 1/2."
