pain
"I have 2 degenerative discs and this is the only medicine that lets me have a quality of life and productivity that I would not otherwise have. I take 3 x 40mg extended release a day with 30mg immediate release for breakthrough pain as needed. I have no side effects at all, and when I ran out once for 2 days, the pain was bad, but no other withdrawal symptoms, no vomiting, etc. Without this medicine I would be severely restricted in my movements and basically not able to function without pain. It is a shame that most people have a prejudice about this medicine a, but for those of us with chronic serious pain who use it as prescribed; it truly is a lifesaver! "
