The oxycodone (not the same as oxycontin) proved too much. The hydrocodone is a lot milder but i have a strong tolerance to pain meds. Sorry kids, doombilly is a gov't man. So no illegal (benign) drugs for me. Only synergetic, deadly, toxic Rx's. I am doing the hydros in 1/2 doses but have already cancelled our next gig. While I have benefits at my job, I am already about $1500.00 out of pocket.
