Thanks for the response Jean. I think I will look it up. I just don't really know what else to do. I am on cbcp and have been for four years now, but I am in pain all day everyday. I was taking 1600mg of advil three times a day just to ease the pain enough to barely make it through the day. I have been doing that for almost five years and I had to find something else. With the ultracet I only take two pills twice a day (four total). She gave me some percocet for really bad days, and so far I haven't touched them. I don't take the meds to prevent pain, I only take them when the pain gets so bad I can't do anything but cry. Unfortunately that happens several times a day. I am in the process of setting up surgery with Dr. Albee in Atlanta, so hopefully I won't have to be on anything by the end of the year.
