I used to do it somewhat similar (at least drink the stuff like that in koolaid) but I had emergency surgery a month ago to repair a perforated ulcer (spent 8 days in the hospital) and I want to cut out the caffeine from the solution. That's why I am going through the extra trouble with a "relatively" weak narcotic. In a couple of weeks I will be half way to a century and I am starting to get the problems associated with that age group. I virtually gave up drinking because of all the pills my Dr gives me (mirapex, clonazepam, hytrin, inderal, T3's, losec, etc,etc). I'm just basically trying to find a medicine that I can take to mellow out at night and for sleeping.
Anyhow, guys, thanks for your input and if you come up with anymore ideas let me know. Another thing, I take 40mg of prozac every day and I know that stuff is supposed to seriously inhibit the workings of the codeine. I can't stop taking the prozac so maybe someone can think of something else I should be looking at. Any input is appreciated. Thanks, John
P.S.- I'm not looking for someone to play Dr, just some one who can help me help myself. I've come to the conclusion that Dr's don't know everything and a lot of what they do is "experiment" with the medications they prescribe.
