I need some help from someone. Is there anyone out there who knows of a good long term treatment facility in Texas for pain meds. I have had chronic pancreatitis for 11 years and have been on every med they have. Now I want to stop because the pain isn't so bad anymore and I am taking 10-10mg hydrocodone a day. I have to stop. My doctor can't keep prescribing all these pills and I am tired of taking them. I need help from someone PLEASE!!
Thanks, Sunnyt
Sunny, I know about pacreatitis very well. If you want to email me, feel free so I can give you some advice. I don't want to go into it too much on the board here. My email is Dannyob343@aol.com
Sorry I can't help.... I live in New Orleans, not Texas... but I just wanted to let you know that someone was thinking of you and wishing you the best.
good for you, sunny for wanting to take some positive action regarding your addiction. i just did a quick google search and found this listing of treatment centers in texas. have you had a chance to talk to your doctor about a recommendation to one?

also, if you come to www.pillsanonymous.com and join, post a message there too. there are quite a few members on that site who live in texas. maybe they know of some treatment centers near where you live.
let us know how you are and what you find.

hiya marina -
if i was any better, i couldn't stand it!
i got the tree up today, while my grandson is visiting with his other grandmother. i was talking with amy "pregnantmom" earlier today and shared that if it was up to me, i would hang a wreath, put a few candles in the windows, stuff like that and forget the tree. however, this year, my grandson lives with me and i went off on a rant about complaining to God that i'm too old for this, i have already raised my children and here i go again! why on earth is this happening to me.
then i paused and thought about last night and the numerous of other nights when that little guy just snuggles with me and we break out in fit of giggles - he grabs me around the neck and caresses my cheeks with his little baby hands and says..."omi, i wuv you."
therein lies my reason why this child is in my life.
ya know - there is something special about babies - it must be because they are so close to God.
hey - thanks for asking about me. please write and tell me how you are.
much love to you.

That is such a nice moment. After my husband and I had our daughter we said that's it we only won't one. Last night we decided after I am completely detoxed I will stop taking my BC pill's. Then we are going to be very care for three months, then we are going to try to have another one. My consular said that she sees no problems with that plain. It is everyone's first reaction is to say all I won't is the baby to be healthy, and I most certainly feel that way. I would love it boy/gril. Honestly if I could pick I would pick a boy. We are all ready bless with a beautiful girl, I just would like one of each :-)
That is my GOOD news for today!
It is also going to motivate me to finish the treatment faster so my body is in tip top shape
sending you hugs Sammy ~

SunnyT,
Welcome ;o). I am sorry re: your illness. But that is "great" that you realize that you may no longer need the medication. I too, am in the same boat, not sure where my pain level is right now. I am in pain, on the meds, so what's the difference. I hope you have spoken with your Dr. re: going off of your medication. Going into Rehab would be a good step for anyone going off of any type of addicting medication or substance. I know many of the people in this Forum have done that, and are glad that they went. You get alot of support and you learn alot about the disease of addiction. Many of us, would have loved to have gone into a recovery program. Please keep looking on the Internet, and asking at different websites. I am sure you will find some recommendation. Your Dr. should also be able to help you with that information. I wish you the very best, and hope you keep coming back ;o). Have a nice weekend. Take care, Best Wishes
