I once took Percocet for pain and it made me feel dizzy and have a sharp pain in my stomach what is that?

Actually, Darvocet IS a narcotic. It's just not as strong of a narcotic as Percocet is. \n\nI agree with the other answerer. You should always eat something when you take Percocet. It's know to cause stomach upset, so you need to put something in your stomach to coat it, that way you don't feel any pain. The dizziness can be relieved by taking an antihistamine (try benadryl) or just getting up slowly when you're lying down or sitting. Usually, any side effects that you experience when taking medication only last for a few weeks, if that. Side effects occur when your body isn't used to a medication, so until it is used to it, you'll experience some unpleasant feelings. Now, with percocet, what many people refer to as a side effect is actually why many people take it: euphoria (or a "high"). \n\nIf you do take darvocet, just be careful. Do a search on darvocet on google, and look at all the articles about it. Take extra precautions to not take too much. It's very easy to take a few more than usual of darvocet and for it to have negative effects on your body. Just click the link below for all the search hits on google for darvocet.  \n\nI hope this helps.

Pain pills can have various side effects, if it is anti-inflammatories you are taking, these can give people gastrointestinal upset and stomach pains, that is why it is best to take these types of medications with meals. If it is more of a narcotic, like Lortab, Vicodon, Darvocet, etc, they can give alot of people drowsiness and when used over longer periods of time, constipation. Make sure to drink these with plenty of water, and do not operate heavy machinery when taking them. Also if you are taking them long term, you may want to add a stool softener that way you do not get constipation from use.

When I had appendicitis, I woke up, and I had a dagger-sharp pain in my upperleft stomach below the ribs. I started off thinking it was a bad stomach ache, but it just wouldnt go away. The pain started moving towards the lower right side of my stomach (a common symptom), and by the end of the night, I went to the hospital and had it removed. But the way I see it is that if you have appendicitis, you will know by the severe pain.

well I have both, Percocet is a narcotic while tramadol aka Ultram is like a narcotic but not in the same class, both works good for pain.

Yes, it's way stronger than morphine and much, much stronger than percocet because percocet is tylenol with a bit of an opioid (morphine-like) drug in it. Hydromorphone is an opioid. I would say it is more addictive because there is more opioid in it than percocet and because it is a stronger opioid, and that is what makes you feel high, as well as relieving pain. If you are worried about becoming addicted, relax, less than 1% of people get addicted to painkillers. You might experience some dependence, where your body feels funny if you stop suddenly, in which case the doc would wean you off the drug. That isn't addiction. Addiction is when you crave the drug and need it psychologically to function. Whew, long answer.

I had mine out 5 years ago when I was 16.  It didn't hurt because they gave me liquid codeine and I was taking that every 4 hours or maybe it was 6...anyway that worked really well.  I even had to go to the emergency room that night because my throat was bleeding into my stomach and I was puking up a lot of blood so they had to go in with some silver nitrate to close up the spots that were bleeding.  With the pain medicine I had the puking didn't even hurt so I'm sure you'll be fine. :)\n\nOh and I didn't eat ice cream at all...Jello and popsicles are where it's at...when I tried to eat ice cream it burned my throat and for whatever reason made me a bit sick to my stomach...could have been the pain medicine though

Ok, well, you're seriously constipated dude!\n\nIf you have any kind of abdominal pain, you should see a doctor right away.\n\nBut if you are NOT experiencing any pain, then do the following:\n\nGo to your drugstore and buy a product called 'Senokot'.  They are very safe tablets that work wonders without any painful cramps.  \n\nTake them as instructed on the package and you should see some 'movement' overnight. However, if the next day (over 12 hours or so), nothing happens, go see a doctor right away as it may be a serious problem.\n\nGood luck!

the meds that you mentioned are indeed related to each other. Taking any strong pain killer on an empty stomach will make anyone sick. It not only causes nausea, but lightheadedness & even sweating. That's why the prescription bottle should say to take with food.

I believe you already know the culprit. Stress can do some weird sometimes inexplicable, things to our bodies. Our stomach and bowels are not immune to this. It can produce painful flactuance and cramping among other symptoms. Next time try laying on your belly (if able to do so) or rubbing stomach area in a circular motion, if the pain nasuea and dizzyness persist, tell your doctor right away. Of course do what ever it takes to reduce your stress level. Eat a healthy diet, drink enough water, get enough sleep and exercise. If you are able to, go get a relaxation massage, many spa's offer delightful essential oils, and this treatment can be so beneficial to the mind and body. Take care of yourself, GOOD LUCK.

hi. sorry to hear about your miscarriage and your pain. As far as I can remember, i think pain is part of the after effects of the miscarriage, but I really cannot be sure. I had a D&C after the miscarriage and I did get pain in my lower abdomen (don't remember the side it was on, though!), BUT Don't take a chance to wait for us to respond, if it continues much longer, I think u should call a doctor. If it is appendicitis then you cannot ignore it at all.

In that area of your body you have your upper intestines, gallbladder, and your liver.  You can also have pain from your kidney.  If you're still hurting after several days and the pain is getting worse you should see your health care provider.  You may have some sort of infection or damage to an organ in that area.  Or it could simply be muscle pain from a strained muscle in that area.  Your doctor or nurse practitioner could best test and determine what's going on.  I would see them though to rule out any sort of infection of one of your major organs.  It's kind of high to be appendicitis but that's possible if it's referred pain.  If you've had fever and nausea/vomiting with it you need to seek help immediately to be evaluated for appendicitis.

What tests did you have?  I got gallstones after my son was born, it was horrible!  Worse than any part of labor!!  When I went to the hospital and they suspected gallstones, they set me up for a sonogram the next day!  Once the sonogram confirmed it, percocets were my best-friend until I could get into surgery.  They made the pain disappear within 20 minutes!!

I don't know if you are a man or woman so I will give you advice for both \nWoman You might be pregnant, if you are still having regular periods it can be normal.  Go to a OB/GYN or just a GYN\nMan or woman You might be constipated and are back up and it can be very painful. It could be apendicitis\nThe main symptom of appendicitis is belly (abdominal) pain. The pain can feel like indigestion or like you need to have a bowel movement or pass gas.\n\nYou may have appendicitis if: \n\nYou have pain in your belly. The pain begins around your belly button but is felt all over your belly. \nWithin several hours, the pain gets stronger and then moves below your belly button on your right side (the lower right quadrant). The pain does not go away and gets worse when you move, walk, or cough. \nYou have pain in the upper right quadrant. \nYou feel nauseous or throw up a few times. You also may not feel like eating. \nYou have constipation, back pain, a slight fever, or a swollen abdomen. \nYou feel tired and do not have a lot of energy.\nI suggest going to the doctor to get checked out.

Misinformation is the biggest reason.  A previous answer suggests that every time one takes a pain pill it harms the stomach.  That's an example of misinformation that can scare people away from reasonable steps that could make them comfortable.  Aspirin has a reputation for harming the lining of the stomach. That can happen, but only after taking aspirin in large, frequent doses for many days.  The simple solution to that is to take enteric-coated aspirin, which does not dissolve in the stomach.  If one is allergic to aspirin - and one should NEVER assume on one's own that one is allergic - then there are other over-the-counter medicines that can relieve cramps.  Motrin is one, tylenol is another.  Then there are the medicines meant specifically for menstrual cramps, such as Pamprin.  Several of the women I've known very personally have found that a heating pad or hot water bottle held against the area that's hurting can help the painkiller pills work better. It is foolish to fail to make onesself comfortable when it's so easy and inexpensive to do so because Aunt Myrtle or some other poorly informed person tells you it is dangerous.   Take your pills and brew Aunt Myrtle a nice cup of tea and change the subject!

If you are feeling nauseaus or vomiting from any medication, you need to stop taking it and call your Dr. to let them know.  That is an adverse reaction to a medication.
