3. yes its fine, I'm not pulling a Janis Joplin
it mainly speeds up the relief. I've been good, I've only had 5 beers in the past month since my accident.

I'm actually digging on the tunes more than anything else

6. Not a good idea to take acetaminophen and drink.
That stuff is very hard on your liver.

Percodan and beer, on the other hand, is a beautiful thing.

It made my recovery from the removal of four impacted wisdom teeth alllllllright.

2. E-GADS! Other than the flying monkeys, I find Percocet to be just fine on its own.
I'm dealing with several broken vertabrae and a mystery pain in my shoulder that sometimes leaves the arm useless. Fentanyl patches were an exercise in perpetual regurgitation and hydrocodone just wasn't strong enough. Alcohol is sort of a no-no with Percocet. One of the "call 911" side effects is "not breathing" (minor problem, of course).

4. the hydro has been fine most days, but the bones hurt today
they put two screws in my shoulder and chipped away part of the socket after the dislocation, but I'm much better since the surgery fixed me. I mainly hate the silly brace I have to wear

5. Yeah, I've got to wear a silly brace too. I take it off if it gets too fucked up.
I'm not a candidate for surgery. In some ways that sucks.

7. I needed surgery because my posterior dislocation was pretty bad
and it had to be opened up, pulled apart the put back together. It was pretty gruesome
