Siatic Nerve Pain, What do we take for the pain???? OH THE FREAKING PAIN LOL

OK, guys i'm pretty sure it is my siatic nerve after reading some stuff online and having to deal with this with Becca.

The pain is in my hip on the left side, when I try to stand or walk it's as if a pit bull is biting my ass and hip and there is a jolting pain and I can't freaking move.   Sounds like Siatic to me.

When she had this before her surger they gave her Percaset, well we can't take that now.  

What do you guys take for Siatic nerve issues. 

I have a appt at 4:30 with my doctor, and want to tell him what drugs other WLS people use cause the primary care doctors don't know crap about WLS. 

Sorry to hear you're in pain sis.  Try tyelnol extra strength, it might help.

Took tylenol yesterday it was like candy,  no help at all.   Took Vicodin last night, it didn't even help.     Oh the Pain,  the pain.   lol

Hi Lee.  I had a tt and bl/ba in August and I was given Percocept for the pain.  Many wls patients on the Plastic Surgery Board has taken percocept for pain, you might want to try it. 

Hope you feel better soon.

But I thought we couldn't take Percocept.   I don't want to blow out my pouch.

I had a different surgery in Feb. and I took Percocept. for about 1 1/2 weeks 4x per day. I've also taken vicodin.  they both worked really good!

hope you feel better soon!

Hi Lee,

I have some of the same issues with my siatic nerve and knee pain.  My PCP prescribed for me Ultracet and Vicodin, and it has worked wonderfully for me.  The only thing is that I have to take it at night because it does make me drowsy.  I also got injections for hips a couple of weeks ago.  This has worked like a charm to almost eliminate the pain altogether.  So ask if that might be an option for you.

Thankids Dstgirl

I am going to ask for Ultracet, I have vicodin and it did nothing for it.   I hope they give me a shot cause this **** hurts.

My back surgeon suggested Tylenol Arthritis.  It really works!

I have been popping Tylenol Arthritis like crazy and it usually helps me with my regular pain but it is doing nothing for this.
