A question...

[eternalflame4]

Hey everyone,

I need some advice. As you all know I've been struggling with the pain from my wrist ailment. I've been given a script for Vicodin and I took one around noon and now, 2 and a half hours later I still feel funny.

I feel kinda dizzy/lightheaded, nauseous, sleepy, and of all things depressed. I don't feel like myself at all, and I slept for 2 hours after taking a pill. I don't like this feeling, although it does help with the pain. Alas, I can't take this at work or if I'm going to be driving, but the pain is actually controlled for now.

Now for the question. If any of you have been on Vicodin, how does did it make you feel? I'm wondering if this is normal, all that I'm feeling.

Thank you for your help. (x-posted to lambda_iota_nu)

probably going to sound immature, but yea ive taken a some vic and it makes you feel dizzy and stuff because its a pretty strong muscle/pain relaxant. i definitely felt sleepy and lightheaded but not sad, everything made me laugh.


oh and thanks so much for the comment, that really means a lot. i wish you lots of good luck too! ill let everyone know when the shower is if you want to drop by for some good food. :)

I wouldn't take it.. 800 mg of advil every 4 hours should do the trick.. if you need something in between 1000 mg of tylonol will knock it out...

I stay away from habit forming drugs....
