"i was on different doses of vicodin for 2 years and i was having pains in my side from all the tylenol and damaging my liver.  i was switched to percocet and it has been awesome.  i take 3 x 10/325mg a day and i have osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia.  i am only 24 so it was hard to find a doctor who would actually treat and listen to me and not think i was a drug abuser because of my piercings, age and tattoos.  this medicine decreases my pain my 80% and with my voltaren gel i can get 90% relief.  i have a 5yr old daughter and without my medication i can&#039;t take care of her or myself.  i just sat around crying all day in pain.  now i can cook, clean, do activities, go on outings, run errands and do everything i did before."
