[Spridgets] nmc - pain relief?

[Larry Daniels]

Rick, be careful of that stuff.  That is what Brett Favre got hooked on.  He 
had to go into treatment to get off of it.

It is a brand name for Hydrocodone.  That is what my surgeon prescribed for 
me when I tore my Achilles off my heel.  It is supposed to be for moderate 
to severe pain so it's strong stuff.

I can't tell you how well it works because I didn't take it, but I would use 
as little as necessary to get the relief you need and no more.

(I think ED takes it and look what happened to him.)   ;-))

Sorry for the off topic here, but I figured if anyone knew the answers
someone in this group would be the one to ask...

I'm on a beta blocker for hypertension, and was recently prescribed Tramadol
for pain in an extremity.
First I see why people call that stuff Damnitol, it's incredibly ineffective
as a pain reliever to say the least.
Well it had a pretty negative interaction with my BP meds and I spent a day
feeling very bad, right up till I vomited and started feeling better.
I told the doc all about it and he said I was right to stop taking Damnitol
and offered to call in a scrip for the pain reliever that starts with a V.
(don't want to trip over any spam filters...)

So, here's the question - and in case you are wondering - I am serious:

How many Vic. does it take to work?
The scrip says take one every 4 hours as needed, but that doesn't seem to
help.
How many at once is dangerous?

I understand if nobody wants to go on record here, email me personally if
you want.

Thanks.
