Heck yeah! I have seen some really good people turn into useless
dirtbags and lose everything hooked on oxys. Never, ever, ever let
anyone talk you into using either of those recreationally. It's a bad
addiction/chemical dependency that even the strongest seem unable to
control on their own. I live an hour from a guy they call "the oxy
doc" and have watched him precribe many folks lives down the shitter
when they did not need such a dangerous drug.
So what are the symptoms of being hooked on oxys? How does one avoid it?
I don't experience any particular rush when I take the meds to alleviate
the pain that starts when they wear off.
Perhaps I should change to a lower-potency drug when I get back to Los
Alamos.

Probably a good idea to see your family doctor about pain management when
you get back to Los Alamos. In the meantime its probably best to follow
your discharge instructions from the surgeon. Bone surgery can be one of
the most painful post-surgically. It might be a good idea to call your
surgeon and ask if you should be taking "both" oxycodone and oxycontin.
OxyContin is a controlled-release form of oxycodone.
Here is more information from the Physicians Desk Reference; a reliable
source of medical information:

Here is info on tylenol (acetominophen) since you may be taking that after
oxycodone. More than 4000 mg / day is considered dangerous.

Good luck,
