Awhile ago i posted about back pain. Well
its back. and finally i went to the dr.
they gave me a muscle relaxer and pain
killer.
now i have taken 4 doses of the muscle
relaxer and 2 of the pain killer and i
still have pain. I was in really really
bad pain before i started. and ijust
started the meds yesterday morning. so
almost 24 hours ive been on medication.
Does anyone know how long it should take
to kick in? Is it gonna take a lil longer
because i was in such bad pain?? also too
i had gastric bypass surgery 3 years ago,
and i know i dont "absorb" things like
normal people, could that be it? im taking
a full pill but only get maybe half the
effect?? anyone got some advice on this???

The medications you are taking should work
right away. I suggest asking for
something else, as this seems to be
ineffective for you.

New to this forum hopefully I am replying
the correct way, I am on pain meds to and
muscle relaxers, doc ordered me to stay on
them all day for now, yet I get very
little relief and have tried several, I
believe it is because of the back problem
I am having,which they believe is a
herniated disc at this time( will know for
sure hopefully soon). Even pharmacist said
pain from certain conditions is hard to
control. If this continues I will ask for
something else, don't want to, hate to
take meds, but pain is to much to take.
hopefully you find something that works
for you. Good Luck.
