Bubbly toes ... Another med question if you don't mind

JOEBunny

So I got the lortab and have been taking that since last night and feel much better from a pain perspective, except that I just threw up and have been nausous all morning.  I am allergic to codine.  Are there any other pain meds that I could possibly take and BF or should I just give it up and suffer until Friday?

The pain is really bad, especially at night, feels like childbirth in my shoulders, I am willing to put up with the nausea, if it won't do anything worse to me?

I realize I need to call my doctor and I will :-)

That's actually a fairly common side effect of the Lortab.  Taking it with food can alleviate some of the nausea, but probably not all of it.

People with codeine allergies can have issues with hydrocodone, but not all the time.  It's the more natural codeine products that tend to cause the problems, rather than the synthetic like the Lortab.

Sorry you're dealing with this!  Hope you get some relief soon.

Thank you.  I ate a big breakfast with sausage and cheese biscuits to help coat my stomach.  I am thinking about just discontinuing the pain meds entirely and switching to beer :-)  I might try just the muscle relaxer tonight and see if that helps.  I haven't tried that one yet.
