Talk:Dilaudid

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The drug Dilaudid did not link to anything so I linked it to Hydromorphone, which is the article about the generic form of that drug. - Daniel

I have been in various stages of degenerative spinal arthritis for several years following my discharge from the military, due to compression fractures of T-10, 11, 12 of the thorasic vertebre' and several others that I cannot readily call to mind. However I did do some research on the current pain killer I am using, believe me. I found out that Dilaudid is a form of synthetic Heroin, manufactured under extrememly strict guidelines for sale and ditribution to the general public at large, it is what the medicine world calls a triplicate, which simply means that you have to have a doctor who thinks/believes that you seriously need to kill some major pain before you will get it, I mean you pretty much have to be one step away from major sugery or in a position where surgery will do more harm than good if such a thing exists. And I assure you it does, my spine is currently undergoing a extremely slow but diliberate contortion into what could simply be called the pretzel position, in other words in not to many years hence I will either be so deformed that I can no longer walk upright or be wheel chair bound due to the twisting and bedning of my disc's crumbling into powder and not being able to hold me in an upright position any longer. However the dilaudid is a lot more powerfull than the generic brand of it commonly known as "hydomophone" so just FYI in case your ever asked about it or wanted to know more than wikipedia had to offer.
