pain
"I just began taking this medication about a week ago.  Last month I was switched from Percocet 10/325mg to Dilaudid 2mg as the Percocet seemed to not be working for me anymore.  Either that or my pain had progressed and gotten worse.  (I have a few herniated discs in the my lower back)  I felt like the Dilaudid helped but was very short-lived.  So, I asked my doctor about switching to something extended release.  I never heard of this medication, but honestly in just a week and I am on the lowest dose of 8mg- I feel like a different person.  I can function again more than I have been able to in almost 7 months of living with this chronic pain.  I feel like I am alive again! Very happy with this! (except yes it is expensive!)"
