A Productive Rant About implantation cramping stories
blog Apr 17, 2022
I’m on day 4 of a new, non-opioid pain medication. My body is very sensitive to the drug, and I’m now experiencing some severe, excruciating cramping in my lower abs and quadriceps. The cramping is so extreme and feels so hard to bear that I’ve been putting off the pain meds for a month. I’m so confused and frustrated, and it’s been a month with no relief.
The thing is, cramping is a common side effect of pain meds.
I think this is a very good reason for an opioid-free, non-opioid pain medication. But that would also mean that cramping is a side effect. Cramping and pain are two very polar, opposing things. There is no consensus on what side effects should be considered a side effect of pain meds, so I wouldn’t be surprised if the FDA, or somebody in the Obama administration, decided to take a long, hard look at this.
This is a problem that can be a lot harder to solve than you think. I’m not sure what side effects our government is looking for, but I did find a report discussing a study that looked at over 9,000 pain patients between 2004 and 2011 that found that people who took opioids to relieve pain ended up getting worse with the pain and ended up having more pain. So yeah, maybe they’re looking at cramping and pain as side effects.
The best way to figure this out is probably to run a study on it.
I don’t know. It’s worth a try. I mean I’m on opioids right now, but maybe I’m just giving myself an easy way to get off of them. Maybe I’m just getting used.
We can’t say for sure, but I doubt that opioids are the cause of the pain epidemic. The painkiller you take to get off of it would probably get better. What it does is give you pain relief, but also makes it harder to think of a solution to the problem.
I have no idea what implantation cramps is, but I have heard of it before.
Pain is a major reason why many people go on to opioid addiction. So the painkillers are a major reason why so many of us have started taking them. And while I would like to believe it is the only reason, I know for sure that it isn’t. It’s a little hard to believe that this drug has been around for so long and has never done anything wrong.
I have often heard that implantation cramps is a drug problem. I have also heard that implantation cramps was invented during the Vietnam war. But I have never heard of a case of implantation cramps being an indication of opioid addiction. And I have never heard of a case of implantation cramps being used to treat opioid addiction.
