For Pain "I cannot stand Vicodin, anything with codeine, etc., but recently I had to have a lumbar puncture (spinal tap) and was one of the unfortunate 10% who got the resulting 'spinal tap headache.' I've given birth, and I swear a spinal tap headache is more excruciating. I desperately needed something for the pain, but refused stronger narcotics as they make me really sick to my stomach, so my doctor gave me Darvocet. After taking it, I felt like I just had a normal, bad headache, which given my previous condition, was a huge relief. I could actually stand up straight and walk after taking it. Though it didn't completely ease the pain, it certainly made it quite bearable."

For Pain "Taking this has helped with the pain, but if I take the full dose I become so sleepy that it's hard to stay awake. However, unlike Vicodin, it hasn't made me sick to my stomach or 'loopy'."

Acetaminophen / propoxyphene for Pain "Darvocet and Vicodin make me really sick and dizzy, but if I start out taking 1/2 of a Darvocet and up the dose as needed and as handled, then I can use Vicodin if the pain is that bad, and I won't get sick. Sometimes I also take a Reglan at the same time, which usually cures the nausea for me."
