I’m addicted to oxycodone. I take it for (scoliosis) back pain from titanium rods in my spine and I end up going through withdraws because of all the crap about it. The doctor prescribes me a low dosage and I always run out at least a week before the new perscription. Oxycodone works great, but you have to tolorate some pain to prevent taking the drug by schedule which will prevent withdraws. The pharmacy gives me a hard time when I pick up my refills. This drug is ridiculed just like hand guns. The drug relieves depression due to chronic pain, stops allergies and gives me sharper focus including energy. It’s close to a miracle pill and I have been told that.
I’ve read eye witness accounts of people who have died and came back to life describing Heaven. I’d rather have eternal OC.

Obviously mr kevin likes to hate on the “real” chronic ill people out there, huh…. could he be part of …..Na haha! You know no one ask for a (this one might get to alot of people but oh well), man made “gov” illness that was produced in a lab to test on ummm, maybe animals “people”! let me ask you something, CFS, LYMES, FIBRO, M.S, doesn’t all of these along with many others seem like a big pot of soup that seems to be hidden in a way from the public b/c( uhh i wonder) the great almighty people up in washington and other places don’t want you to know about them so they don’t have to treat you the “right” way when it comes to medical attention. my mother also has the same “AUTO IMMUNE DISEASES” and not one docter in the south seems to believe in lymes disease. i wonder why? they are threatened by the CDC or people in the gov. to not say or mention a damn thing about it! Im still very young and have been living w/ this for 7 years know since i was 16 and my mother even longer. ………………AND I KNOW I AM TALKING FOR ALOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE WITH CHRONIC ILLNESSES. SO MR KEVIN, NEXT TIME THINK BEFORE YOU SAY BUDDY BECAUSE THESE PEOPLE DON’T NEED TO BE TARGETED LIKE THEY ARE FOR HAVING SOMETHING THEY CAN NOT CONTROL, OK! THEY WANT TO LIVE JUST A NORMAL LIFE AND NOT BE HELD IN THE DARK FOR HAVING SUCH. I AM ONLY 23 YEARS OLD AND HAVE LEARNED MORE THAN ALOT FOR MY AGE ABOUT THE MEDICAL FEILD AND HOW THEY WORK AND WHAT IS GOING ON IN THIS CORRUPT COUNTRY OR “THE FREE”! LINDSEY HAS A TOTALLY DIFFERENT PROBLEM AND WILL GET OVER IT WITH THE RIGHT HELP AND SUPPORT. AS FAR AS THE TRUE SICK, CHRONIC SUFFERS, WELL WE ARE IN A WHOLE NEW CATEGORY!

i think its stupid to down a medication that helps millions of people daily. i don’t know about you but i suffer from multiple sclurosis, fibromyalgia,cfs, and lymes. and i take it to have a better quality of life. if some idiot out there found a way to get high off of(ex.)some over the counter drug than that would be the new thing and oxy would be forgoy about. but the damn media has to get in everybodies buisiness today and it pisses me off. if im going to have a chance at loosing my medicine over these crack head trashy mother####### than let it be but #@#@ the gov. and media because people that really do suffer from a chronic illness should be left alone and get the most support of anyone.

To Carrie Applewood,

I so agree with you – i have been in chronic pain for 7 years now and have been greatly helped by pain medications similar to oxycontin (not that exact one though). It has become SO HARD for honest people who are in very real pain to get our meds because of people who abuse them. It used to frustrate me and now it makes me very mad!

I Have no idea what “Kevin From Bathurst” is talking about (clearly he doesn’t either though :->) – but I and anyone else who has to live with the terrible thing that is chronic pain will *absolutely* know what you are talking about!

and to Everyone…..

Ms. Lohan doesn’t need this medication – she has not, to my knowledge, been grievously injured, does not have a pain condition – this is a medication that only a doctor can prescribe! And when we are on these meds, we go see our doctors frequently to make sure that everything is OK. But it is scary that people who MISUSE them could possibly get them taken away from honest people.

I feel sorry for Ms. Lohan – she has crappy parents who use her for money and to get into clubs – is it ANY wonder that she is such a mess now? There but for the grace of God go i – and i really hope that she gets the help she needs and can have a good life.

Way to miss the point, Carrie Applewood.

Difference between ‘drug’ and ‘medicine’ innit? Codeine’s horrible anyway. Morphine now…

First off, this is a ludicrous article. I am a 40 year old woman with chronic, horrific, back pain. The pain is so intense, I can’t sit, nor stand for more than a few minutes at a time. I also am unable to work. I also take Oxycontin which at least has given me part of my life back. It enables me to be a human being again and do some of the things most people take for granted. The fact that this drug is bashed by those that have no need for it, is easy. And despite what some of you misguided and uninformed individuals think, it wasn’t easy for me to even get a prescription for the drug in the first place. I don’t take this drug to get high, I take it so I can have a life, I can have a pain-free day, so I can get out of bed, so I can function.

If some nit-wit like Lindsey Lohan takes it so she can get high, she’s an idiot! Most people I know who are in chronic pain don’t take it to get high either. And if you don’t take it to get high, there is no problem with addiction.

Before all of you judge something, like OxyContin as being a “nasty drug” ask yourself what you would do if you had horrific pain and there was nothing else that eased that pain? If you were the one with horrid pain, you might not be so quick to judge…

If I remember correctly, dad hasn’t had contact with her in years, but now he has the inside scoop? Yeah, sure dad… He is just looking for some extra publicity for himself, like he always has.

I feel for this girl, because she is truly messed up. But all the media attention will only kill her, not help her. But she is such an attention seeker that she is probably constitutionally incapable of staying out of the spotlight, let along getting honest with herself. I wouldn’t bet on her getting or staying sober- the best indicator of future behavior is past behavior, sad to say. It is the rare person indeed who can beat alcoholism and addiction, and it’s a fight they must continue for the rest of their lives, not just to avoid jail or something. Fat chance, I’m afraid.

So she likes to get faded. Big deal. She’s famous and she might o.d. sometime and then who would be sad?

If you had any experience with a child who was hooked on Oxy and almost died, you might just understand her father telling the world. If he is a recoverying addict of any drug, god bless him for telling everybody, his mission and purpose is to expose this nasty drug in any way he can. Good for him telling the world. She needs some serious and long term rehab, not a 30 day program. So this movie she is supposed to do, she should worry about her sobriety for the next year and forget about the move………she is lucky to be alive. Oxy is a mean drug and highly addictive and is slowly becomming the next plague!! It appears that she has hit rock bottom, just where she needs to be, god willing she will get the help she needs and recover. When she does, just maybe she can in turn spread the word and help some others recover from drug abuse.
