Time Taken: 1.5 years

Reason: neck, shoulder and arm pain Date: 17 February 2007
Side Effects
This makes me little shakey in the beginning but you will be fine if you eat enough food. It can give you euphoria and make you feel a little displaced but other than that it works well for my pain.

Additional Thoughts
I like it... it helps me a lot better than two hydrocodone 7.5/325 and even two percocet 5/325. It keeps me awake too late sometimes at night if I take it in the late afternoon or anytime in the evening or at night. The most I've ever taken in one day is 3-1/2 pills, I think, and that is not often. I usually only need 1 or 2 a day to control the pain the best and keep it in the 1-3 range rather than 8-10 range of the pain chart.
