 4  moderate-severe neck pain euphoria, lightheadedness, itchy nose, mild drowsiness (Generic) Vicodin is the ONLY thing to take away the excruciating neck pain that I've had for the past month as a result of a muscle spasm. I tried various NSAIDs in high doses & two different muscle relaxers to no avail. This is the ony drug that helped significantly with the pain. I don't mind the side effects at home, but at work they are a little distracting. It's worth it for the relief of chronic pain! F 39 2 days

 1  Moderate back pain This drug did not provide ANY noticeable pain relief. Instead, I experienced headaches, drowsiness, mild depression, numbness and feeling "stoned." Everyone's body chemistry must be different because this drug worked wonders for my mom after she had a total knee replacement. As for me, it did nothing but add to my problems. Will not take again.

 4  Torn rotaters cup Very itchy all over. Dizziness. stomach aches sometimes. vomiting. When starting to fall asleep at night, just when i began to go into a dream I would hear a really loud popping noise and would make me jump right out of bed. every night this would happen, I know you may look at it is as if it were maybe because of how many i was taking at a time, but i really couldnt help it everyday i would take more and more because i kept gaining a high tollerance to them after a couple of months i started to realize that this was probably do significant damage to my body and havent took them sence. I got so bad into taking them i was taking over 17 aday at one time, i was surprised i never came close to an overdose. M 18 2 months

 3  Kidney stones Itchy nose(!) and nausea / lack of appetite I had to take this for pain due to kidney stones. It definitely works to alleviate the pain, however the nausea that it caused made me not want to take it. It helped if I took the medicine and then just went to bed and laid real still... F 47

 5  post surgical hip replacement Constipation, loss of appetite, withdrawal I'd still be taking this if my surgeon would let me. I started out taking 8 a day, and eventually weaned myself down to one per day. Withdrawal lasted for about 1.5 weeks. It's great for surgical recovery until you have to give it up. Milk of Magnesia worked for me for the constipation and I lost 15 pounds from loss af appetite. F 50 2 months

 4  Fibromyalgia (daily widespread pain None. I have daily widespread pain, in various locations in varying intensity every day since 1998. I wake up in pain and go to bed in pain, sleep is even painful. I do not have a propensity for addiction. I have used the same dose (5mg) and frequency of this drug for 10 years. It still works the same as it did 10 years ago. It doesn't take all my pain away but it helps a great deal and allows me to make it through 2/3 of the day without being severely limited by pain, hold down gainful full time employment and lead a somewhat normal life, for that I am very grateful.

 4  Back pain Works wonders for my back pain, best to take with food to avoid nausea. Found myself taking it more often than prescribed because it kills the pain and makes me want to do stuff. The euphoric rush that gives you energy feels great, however tolerance builds and you need to take more and more. Sometimes have strange dreams, however I actually enjoy bizarre dreams and just laugh it off. Overall a wonderful drug, try to get it with the least tylenol mixed in such as 5/325mg or 10/325. Tylenol can cause liver damage over years of usage M 43 1 years

 5  Neck/joint pain + Chronic head ache A little foggy at first, But zero sleep issues. Puts me in a great mood, Most likely due to the fact that I'm virtually pain free for the first time in 15 years.. I had been living in vegas for awhile, And finally decided it was time to look into some other options for pain treatment. I had done everything I could to avoid having to depend on RX drugs. Unfortunately after 15 years of trying everything else, It just wasn't enough anymore..After having a couple of visits with my families dr, We decided it would be worth a shot to start on a low dose of hydrocodone, And it was truly a life saver!..Sadly I had to move and am now stuck having to deal with dr's who are scared to RX a narcotic and I'm back having to try all the other crap that doesn't work first! I've even been given multiple urine tests all of which have been negative for every possible drug! So expect to jump through a few hoops and try a few different dr's before given an RX for this medicine..Bottom line, is it actually works!.. M 28 3 months

 4  shoulder surgery I was taking 1 pill 2x day off and on for 2 yrs. In the last 2 months i started taking 2 pills 2x day. Boy was that a mistake. I experienced insomnia for 2 months straight and didn't feel like i could function without the pill. So, a week ago i decided to stop cold turkey, another major mistake. After the 2nd day, i started experiencing chills, couldn't sleep for 3 days because my heart felt like it was going to jump out of my chest cause it was beating so fast, i felt like i was having a heart attack, i felt nauseated and had muscle aches. After the third day without any hydrocodone, i had to start taking clonazepam to calm my heart rate down. It did help quite a lot. I won't be taking anymore hydrocodone. Also, i know that clonazepam is very addictive too. I'm only taking .5mg/1x day for about a week until the withdrawal my symptoms subside. After this, absolutely no more prescribed medication for me, period! unless it's life or death. Don't fall into the trap like i did. I kept t M 47 2 years

 4  Pinched Nerve/Interstitial Cystitis None It took four trips to the emergency room before someone prescribed this. Turns out I have a pinched nerve in my right hip that radiates pain from my hip to my right knee. One to two pills every four hours as needed. At first one pill was enough to deaden it enough for me to get to sleep. Either the pain is increasing or my body is getting used to the medicine. That is scary because the pain is the kind you actually contemplate cutting your leg off to stop. Interestingly enough, it also helps with my Interstital Cystitis, although it isn't prescribed for it. Kill two pains with one stone? I'm not complaining. I have had to use it every day for the last couple weeks, sometimes a couple times a day. I'm not noticing any side effects/addictive tendencies. Can't wait to get off it though. Why take chances?

 3  severe menstrual cramps drowsiness, mental fog, high as a kite have tried every possible remedy under the sun for my horrible cramps and asked my doctor for something stronger, just to use a few days a month. This is a lifesaver for me...for the first time in a LONG time, I can be pain free instead of doubled over in pain, missing work curled up in bed, etc. I combined 1 hydrocodone w/ 2 Advils and it really took the pain away. The only problem is I feel so stoned after just taking 1 and I can't be taking that while I'm at work. I will definitely only be taking it on the severe pain days as I do love the fact it takes the pain away, but don't like the side effects. F 38 2 days

 5  post op pain Sedation/euphoria/itchiness/thats about it The stuff worked too well apparently so they gave me Darvs instead. It's ok to live with pain, but GOD FORBID if you get some euphoria. The stuff actually worked though, but wore off quickly. I could see how this could be very addictive given world and time enough. M 27 5 days

 5  chronic headaches; neck pain felt the 'euphoric' effect of the drug for about the first week, and it was actually kind of nice: a lovely warm glow. wanted to hug everybody, mostly because *the pain was gone at last!* since then, no 'glow', just continued effective pain relief. this drug probably saved my life. had chronic headaches for *years*, and got no relief whatsoever while the docs danced around prescribing everything except what worked. "try this muscle relaxer!" "now try this anti-depressant!" when i finally met a doc with the guts to prescribe the feared and dreaded narcotic (gasp!) painkiller, i got my life back. yes, it can be addictive. i've gone through withdrawal twice: it was no fun, no sleep/irritable for about 3 days; but certainly nothing like the throes of heroin withdrawal like they show in the movies. comparing the pain of withdrawal to the pain of my headaches (that only this drug can fix) is like comparing an ant to an elephant. alleviation of constant pain is a gift from god; and easily worth the price you *might* pay by taking this drug. can't recommend it highly enough.

 5  Fibromyalgia dry mouth this is a wonder drug. its the only medication im currently taking that truely helps with the fibromyalgia pain. before being put on hydrocodone I could barely get out of bed, now I can function like a normal person im soooo glad to have my life back. I hear a lot of people talk about the addiction problems with this drug but I think you can only become addicted to it if you have an addictive personality, withdrawl isnt fun but it could be a lot worse and it only last a couple of days. if even that long.

 5  bone spurs in my neck and spine Feeling alive again! I could play with my children, clean my house and get a million things done that normally I would be unable to do because of the pain. Without it I am grouchy and cannot even stand someone touching me... F 33 1 years

 5  Lumbar Spinal Stenosis Constipation. Drowsiness. Addiction. It takes the edge off of the pain. Nothing seems to take the pain away completely, but I'll take a reduction any time! Taking no more than 3 a day at most. Average is probably 8 in a week. M 68
