 1  Wisdom teeh It was awful. First you are constantly sleepy so you can do much but sleep on it. Then the nausea comes and never leave. I took half a pill at 9pm because the pain was unbareable and then the other half at past midnight. A hojr later I was on the floor shaking and sweating while my heartbeat went nuts and I thought for sure I was overdosing. The pain is back and I cannot fall asleep thanks to it. F 23 2 days

 1  widespread arthritis-pain managemen I've been taking Percocet for 5 years. I have had major headaches and terrible moodiness the past 3 years. Affects your mood and if you suffer from headaches and mild depression it will male you much worst. I highly recommend taking non-narcotic pain meds. I am in rhe process of withdrawal. I have never abused, taking only prescribed amount but still became dependant. F 63 5 years

 1  Total hip replacement post surgery I have migraine headaches and after taking this drug for hip pain for 2 days I noticed I was getting bad headaches everyday, all day. I was having to take my migraine medication everyday and this is unusual for me. Recently I woke up with one of the worst migraines I have ever had. I did some reading about Percocet and discovered that it can cause worsening headaches in migraine sufferers so is not recommended. Apparently it can increase intracranial pressure. One of the listed side effects is headache. I actually did not find the hip pain relief effect to last more than 2 hours. I would not recommend this drug due to the headache side effect and for the short acting analgesic effect. F 58 7 days

 1  Tonsillectomy Percocet makes me dizzy, light headed, intensely nauseous. With the same results with Loratab I was left to endure the excruciating pain with only Ibuprofen 800mg. On the 7th day of post op I did make a visit to the ER after becoming severely dehydrated. OMG, how I wish this drug produced the expected results for me. I have considered a gun!! FYI I have had a compression break of my L4-L5 vertebrae, a torn rotator cuff and broken shoulder and went to school the following day at age 16. I had a hysterectomy/rectocele rotator cuff repair and bone fragment removal in October 2012 and needed no drugs after being discharged. F 42 2 days

 1  Low back disk/stenosis sciatica Constipation, Driving through red lights...... I just had to get input on this drug. This "Opiate" had NO, ZERO, NADDA, effect on real deal back pain. My back pain laughed at this drug as it bent me over every day squirming in pain. I could take a fistfull of these, blow out my liver from all the acetomeniphen, and my back pain would rage on like nothing happened. I really can't understand why this is an abused drug...??? I got no so-called "buzz" or "euphoria" just steady stabbing pain in my back. The kind that makes you lose your breath. I might do better with booze than this stuff. I guess if you like to feel ever so slightly floaty, then this baby is for you...!!! Go right to the epidural into the spine.....15 minutes and you walk away.....unbelievable...!!! M 58 30 days

 1  Back pain At first I experienced great energy. Energy, and no pain! I hadn't felt that way since I was a child! But it only lasted about 3 days. Then it would depend, I would feel wired or drugged up and dumbed down! And for the rest of the time, even when I took lower dosage it was the same. DRUGGED UP, DUMBED DOWN, one person thought I had been drinking, another told me to stop taking it, because I wasn't ME! I also had nightmares, and fluid retention. I have suffered with chronic pain for most of my life and I know what it's like to need to try new things, but this is something I would never recommend to anyone. F 47 9 days
