I am extremely allergic to coedine & Vicodin. I have never taken anything stronger than an Excedrin for pain. I wonder what is out there that I won't be allergic to, if I ever need it.

"I wonder what is out there that I won't be allergic to, if I ever need it." In the hospital after botched hemorrhoid surgery, they gave me Demrol by injection. Wonderful relief.
Later--after non-botched surgery, they gave me oral Demerol. Two tablets and my arms and legs were moving on their own accord. I looked up Demerol in the PDA and "involuntary muscular tremors" was listed as a common side effect.
I have no idea why the oral form caused this but the injectible did not.
So I stopped taking the Demerol but those two tabs got me over the hump.

I am extremely allergic to coedine & Vicodin. And that's the weird part - everybody else in my family is deathly allergic to codeine except me. No idea why.

I've never even tried to take Vicocan, but I'm also terribly allergic to codeine.
Heck, I'm even allergic to aspirin.

I am also allergic to coedine. And red wasp and yellow jacket stings.
Something you always wanted to know, I'm sure. :)
