| 1 | surgery | extremely uncomfortable nausea | I have used this after 2 different foot surgeries. The first time I used it off and on for a week after surgery and just remember hating it. The second surgery was today. I was given a local block anesthetic and a sedative for surgery. When I woke up I felt completely fine except for pain in my foot. I was given 1 percocet for the pain and felt horribly nauseas for the next 5 hours. I hate this medicine. | F | 26 | | 11/14/2008 | 1 | surgery on uterus | anxiety, nightmares, dizzy, blurred vision, slowed reactions, flushed skin, itchy, constipation, migraines, emotional (crying), confusion, lathargy | Did not seem to ease my pain much, but did have plenty of unpleasant side effects. | F | 22 | 5 days | 11/19/2008 | 1 | Knee Surgery | Massive headaches, dizziness, nauseous, itchy head | Ugh, I do not like this medication at all. Constant headache at the temples, irritability. Made me very tired. Would rather take nothing. | F | 37 | 2 days | 11/24/2008 | 1 | post-op wrist surgery | none | gave me zero pain relief - then was given vicodin which worked very well. | F | 55 | 3 times | 4/12/2008 | 1 | Root Canal | It's 4 AM, can't sleep, my skin is crawling and I'm using a hair brush to scratch my arms. Horrible. never heard of itching other thang allergy to soap! | Another but this drup | F | 48 | 1 days | 3/1/2008 | 1 | Arthritis | stopped immediately MY HEARING WAS SO SENSITIVE I WANTED TO KILL MYSELF TO MAKE IT STOP. Now, I'm fine that I stopped taking it. | F | 55 | 10 days | 2/7/2005 | 1 | pain relief | I had a severe allergic reaction and broke out in redness, heat and blisters from my shoulder area right down to my ankles. It took almost three weeks before it cleared up. | F | 52 | 3 days | 3/26/2005 | 1 | wisdom teeth extraction | pounding headache for a full 24 hours after quit taking...even at a still state...it was horrible | F | 31 | 2 days | 4/6/2005 | 1 | hand surgery | Don't know about pain relief - all it did was knock me out. And made me nauseous. | Totally don't get the addictive properties of this. This was prescribed to me after a hand nerve surgery two years ago. I can't really speak about the pain relief properties, as all Percocet did for me was to make me nauseous and completely knock me out - an Ambien would do just as well. I still have 37 out of the 40 tabs prescribed after my surgery - from two years ago! I honestly have no idea how anyone can take these on a daily basis and actually function. I know people are addicted to this med, but I just don't get it. | F | 33 | 2 days | 9/25/2008 | 1 | after surgery pain relief | Nausea! | I experienced the worst nausea ever. I HATE being nauseous and throwing up. I just stop taking the pain killer cuz I couldn't put up with the nausea. | F | 27 | 2 days | 1/23/2007 | 1 | hernia repair | loss of coordination, short term memory loss, I was very dizzy and light headed. I was really tired, but could not sleep as my mind was just reeling from one thing to the next. I felt like I had the bed spins. | I quit taking it after my 3rd dose. I would rather deal with the pain from the surgery than feel like I did. I can't believe that people mis-use this stuff. It was really scary! p.s. I slept like a baby the second night after surgery...without the medication. | F | 38 | 1 days | 10/6/2007 | 1 | severe impacted frontal sinusitis | I have Cystic Fibrosis and Percocet is not the pain meedicine for CF people because it really slows down breathing which is a problem already in CF patients. Horrible experience. Sometimes I cant sleep. Then sleeping I have nightmares that feel real (confused if awake or asleep). Stomach cramps and constipation. Very shallow breathing to the point I thought was going to pass out. Anxiety and crying. Felt like my body was as if in a slow ride going down down down and overheated while laying down. I ws not drinking alot of water though. It severely depressed my respiratory system. Hard time speaking as if a great effort to produce my voice to speak. | I dont recommend Percocet and much less to people with breathing problems asthma or Cystic Fibrosis or any pre-existing braething complication . I recommend instead VicoProfen for severe pain it has no acetaminophen and I never feel the side effects that Percocet gave me. It just takes care of the pain. | F | 43 | 7 days | 7/27/2006 | 1 | bladder surgery | migrane headache | the percocet took care of my bladder pain but gave me the worst headache I have ever had. I never had a migrane before but I believe this was it. MAJOR head pain nausea and vomiting all from taking 2 pills in 2 days | F | 36 | 2 days | 9/11/2004 | 1 | chronic joint/leg pain | Gave me a rippin' headache w/in 2hrs of taking it that took a very long time to go away. | Took a long time to kick in and only helped for a short time. | F | 31 | 1 days | 9/25/2004 | 1 | spinal fusion and laminectomy | nausea, itching, sleeping all day, all-around felt like I wanted to die, loss of hand coordination. totally feeling horrible | F | 82 | 2 days | 7/29/2005 | 1 | spinal fusion and laminectomy | nausea, itching, sleeping all day, loss of appetite, all-around felt like I wanted to die, loss of hand coordination. totally feeling horrible | F | 82 | 2 days | 7/29/2005 | 1 | Neck pain and post surgery | Constipation, headaches, nausea | I just got out of the hospital and was on Percocet the whole time in there. I didn't realize that's what was giving me the bad headaches till today. I thought they were due to the surgery. I hadn't taken any today and felt fine but then read that you shouldn't stop them abruptly so took 1/2 and got the headache back. Also had extreme constipation and nausea. | F | 41 | 8 days | 11/8/2004 | 1 | Scar tissue removed from abdomen | depression, emotional, suicidal thoughts, couldn't eat, panic, zoned out, lonely, paranoid | I do have anxiety and depression issues which don't help. Stopped cold turkey and became a mess. Felt like I was having a break down. Found that I should go back on 1/2 pill every 4-6 hours for couple days and then expand my hours after until I'm weaned off. It's working so far but make sure you document every time you take it and stick to the schedule or it won't work. I don't EVER want to feel like this again. Never had trouble with other pain meds after the many surgeries I've had before. No percocet for me. Hope this helps those who have a preexisting condition. Check with your doc before you take something this powerful, especially if you have depression and panic disorder. | F | 37 | 2 weeks 5 Mg 8X day | 5/28/2010 | 1 | 2 infected molars | Nausea, headache, feeling of impending doom, itchy, slow heavy heart rate, fast shallow breathing, hypertension, shaking, confusion | I have an abcessed molar that infected the molar beside it and the pain is awful. Doc gave me percs and I hate them. The first day I took one and it took forever to rid me of pain, took another (prescribe is 1-2 every 4-6 hours) and I was completely terrified. I tried to take a walk to " walk it off " and side shuffled into a curb. I had to call my man and he rushed home from work and took me to the ER where my blood pressure was up to 156/90 with a slow rate of 60. I could only lay there and convulse...they pumped me full of benedryl and steroids and put me on a drip. I was released that nite and been messed up since. The pain is too much to bear so I broke down and took half a pill...did nothing for the pain but gave me the same side effects plus vomiting. So now I'm managing the pain with hot compresses and like 5 OTC motrins...this pill must be bad if i'd rather deal with the pain. And if u r one to get addicted...seriously WTF is that wrong with u?! | F | 30 | 2 days 5/325 2X day | 5/21/2010 | 1 | Dental Surgery | I usually have a high tolerance to pain meds, and OTC pain relievers are usually useless. I was prescribed this drug after dental surgery and, and it made me violently nauseated and caused vomiting. I do NOT recommend this drug; I since have discovered that Darvocet 100 works much better for milder pain, and Vicoprofin is great for post-surgical pain. Note: Vicoprofin can make you feel too good. Beware of addiction. | MADE ME SOOO SICK! | F | 41 | 3 days ? 3X day | 2/9/2010 |
