It's chronic and never goes away. >Thanks!! No chronic does not go away often. Have you been to a "Pain Clinic"? I too, have cronic pain and take Vicodin on a regurlar basis. I do not think I'm addicted to the medicine mentally. Physically I probably am. But, when one take a drug like Vicodine on a regular basis for pain it is because they need it. You don't get the loopy high like feeling when you take these drugs because the drugs actaullly do work on the pain. Try and not worry and seek out a specialist or a pain clinic. Cindi
