Message: [QUOTE="truespode, post: 1256890, member: 29329"] I cannot get rid of these hiccups. They have been going 15 hours now. I had minor outpatient sinus surgery yesterday (bilatteral ethmoidectemy and maxillary something or the other). Well they put me under (and that sucked... I felt paralyzed and couldn't breath - or just felt that way). Then when I woke up I felt horrible and my BP was high. They said it was from the morphine and demoral. Now they have me on Loricet. Since starting it yesterday I have not stopped having the hiccups. I have no pain or anything. Just hiccups. I am hoping that stopping the Loricet will get rid of them and the pain stays away too. I feel too cloudy and awkward on the Loricet. I do not see how anyone could get addicted to something like this. It makes me feel bad, not good. No euphoria, no relaxation, just severe insomnia (I have not slept since coming out of surgery at 3:30pm yesterday and annoying hiccups (unless me not having pain is a tradeoff for the hiccups I gotta find a way to get rid of these things). Doc wants me on the Loricet throughout today and most of tomorrow. My girlfriend agreed to make sure I take them as directed but I might have her agreed to help me wean off today. She is a Physician's Assistant and knows this stuff pretty good so I know I'm in good hands. Ok... just rambling/venting/annoyed and want to ride. Ivan [/QUOTE]
