Showing Original Post only (View all)How the hell does anyone get addicted to Oxycodone? [View all]
I just had full knee replacement surgery on Thursday, and even at "low dose pain" level, all it does is make me constipated, nauseous and dizzy. My main issue is stiffness and muscle numbness.
Hell with it, I'm going back to Tylenol and stretches.
It may be hurt, but damn, the nausea and dizziness is worse.
