Not trying to be a smart ass here, but the best pain reliever is morphine or Heroin. People can live for years on managed doses. The real problem is getting regulated doses. The street drug will eleviate the pain, but you never know what your getting. Too bad Dr.s don't have compassion for this type of pain. You almost have to be dead from Cancer to get this drug when a regulated dose of morphine would work well for this pain and leave your liver and kidneys in good shape. There is always the possibility of addiction, but what is worse addiction or the pain. Anyway, it's a thought. I'm 66 years old, so if I had a huge amount of pain, I'd go to the street and get my relief. The thing would be, to control the desire for the high that goes with it. I've been around junkies and they put H ahead of everything else in their life. they would and have stolen from family members, robbed and done atrocious things to get their fixes. I'd have to say, don't get hooked on the high, @ 21, you have a lot of life left. A friend of mine became addicted to oxycontin after a whiplash injury that wouldn't go away. The pain was so bad that after he went cold turkey to get off the oxy., he killed himself and his 10 year old daughter and 80 year old mother, blew their heads off, then blew his off.
medicinal Reviewed by medicinal on . How long does my liver have? I've been really getting concerned about my liver, since it must be in the same shape as an alcoholic's. I mean, I'm only 21 (almost 22) and have been taking huge amounts of painkillers for 5 years. So I was wondering if anybody has an idea of how much a liver can take? For the first 4 years I was taking an average of 500mg accetaminophen (tylenol), 200mg celebrix, and 600mg ibeprophen a day. Since my pain got worse, I've stepped it up a notch. In the past half-year I've been taking 650mg Rating: 5
