hi there. my name is shawn and i am 27 years old. i have been having a problem recently with my medications not working at all. i take cymbalta 60mg 1x daily, zantac 150mg 2x daily, endocet (percocet) 10/325mg 3x daily, ambien 10mg 1x at night and resperidone 3mg 1x at night. for some time now my endocet simply has not been working. i have also tried taking some adderol 20mg for a while and it had no effect either. im thinking it may have something to do with the fact that i abused tramadol for about 5 months straight. i would take about 14 50mg pills a day to try and treat my pain.... ive been off of it for atleast 3 months now and it seems to have affected my brain chemically. i either have a developed an extremely high tolerance or im thinking i might have just depleted my dopamine to a degree in which medications wont work anymore... please help me figure this out because it is driving me absolutely nuts. i will check this topic frequently to answer any questions you guys may have for me. any input you have for me is welcome... so post away. my sincere thanks....
