"i had the spinal fusion in my two lower disc to alleviate my pain and my pain was still very bad. i have tried all the other pain killers from lortabs 10mg x 6 a day plus percocet 7.5mg -10mg x 8 a day plus some oxycontin and it didn&#039;t work. now i take methadone 10mg x 4 a day and my life has improved immensely! no real high from the medication and it knocks the crap out of your pain. life in heavy pain is really no life."
