Demerol Reviews
Working / Worked
it takes the pain away if only for a short while it is worth is
Working / Worked
Was given many shots of demerol in Hospital, barely worked, terrible pain
Working / Worked
worked too well. became tolerant quickly and it is very addictive due to the euphoria it gives you. After trying without any painkillers, had to start on Methadone to control pain and this works.
Working / Worked
I take 2-50mg tablets every evening. It eases the pain quite a bit although not completely. But it does make it bearable.
Working / Worked
I take opana ER 20mgs TID and Dilaudid 4mgs TID as well and it works very well for me. It allows me to live a normal life. I don't have a drug problem, I have a pain problem. As you can tell I get tired of judgemental idiots who've never bothered to walk a mile in my shoes. The meds My PM doc gives me allows me to work (my job is very physical)and enjoy an active social life afterwards. I thank God for modern medications
Working / Worked
Works great but it's addictive. So I only use it when I experience severe pain.
Working / Worked
Only after a hospital visit(My 12th in 19 months
)

IT'S OK BUT WHY CAN'T I PICK MY OWN DRUG?
