eskielover, I am really glad you found relief for your migraines.

I have been using this Percocet (5 mg dose) for about 10 days now. It only works for about 3 hours and he told me to take it every 8 hours. And it rarely takes the pain away, only dulls it. Right now I'm out so I called my neurologist's office and said the zomig doesn't work and the tizanadine doesn't help my neck pain and could I have more pain medication.

His nurse said, "You went through 30 pills already?" and "Are you seeing any other pain specialists?" Obviously, she's wondering if I'm abusing the stuff or doctor shopping, which I most certainly am not. I have legitimate, serious, daily pain in my head and neck, and I only have him prescribing pain medication.

Because my neck hurts really bad and I had C5/C6 spinal fusion already, I'm also having my PCP do imaging of my neck to see if maybe I don't have a cervical spine problem again. I sure hope not.
