Re: Having an Oxycontin problem

I SEE, I just sent a post about Oxycontin a few minutes ago and then it
occured to me (i'm blond) that this is a ploy by some attorneys to file
suits against the maker of Oxycontin.
I got confused there for a minute because I was going to ask if Chrissie had
another surgery.
By the way, has anyone that is taking Oxycontin built up a tolerance and
their dr. had to increase dosage? Like I said before, it really did good
with the pain for a few weeks but now my pain level is almost intolerable at
times. So, does that mean the pain is worse or the tolerance has built up?
How do you figure that one out?
