I take 4mg tid, because of the hypercautious approach my doctor takes per necessity...when I really need about every 3-4 hrs. PLEASE people who do it--QUIT A ... Show Full Comment

We pain patients are now having to go through hell on the outside as well as the hell of pain inside because of the unseemly interest Uncle Sam takes in what meds pain patients get. Please think of someone besides yourself AS WELL AS yourself!!

Took large doses of Dilaudid when hospitalized for a torn tendon at the upper end of my Hamstring. It worked, but the side effects were terrible for me! Horrible dreams, respiratory distress, anxiety and depression. Felt like I was suffocating! I was on the drug for about 10 days; off it now for a week or so, but the side effects are alarming. I'm still anxious and at times have suicidal thoughts, but my breathing is about 80% better. I don't know how long these side-effects will last...until the drug is completely out of my system. Morphine and Vicodin help, without the drastic side-effects.
