Works great...makes it hard to go to school because it slows your mental processes down.

Avinza, has worked well for 3 years, little change in dosing and keeps me somewhat sane with the pain
Working / Worked
OxyContin is the base drug for my Fibro and CFIDS. Without it I waste away with no use of my brain, too tired to do anything and in too much pain to be able to sleep or eat. On it, it is like it restarted my brain. I can read and remember new things, I can live a semi normal life (along with other painkillers) I can take walks, I can have a social life and since it is timereleased, you don't get the ups and dows of something that is wearing off. My lifesaver.
