Damn, I just squirted so much blood all over myself... Too much pressure and the gauze just overfilled and blood went everywhere... It's not like normal blood flow, since my nose is so swollen, bruised and so sensitive, so it feels really weird and the pressure drops and creates this really, REALLY weird feeling like it's deflating like a balloon or something. Blech!

Percocet is oxy + tylenol, so it's actually stronger. You just can't take as much because the tylenol is the limiting dose.

Your tears drain into your nasolacrimal duct, which connects your eye to your nose. Have you ever seen those people who pinch their nose and are able to squirt water out of their eyes?

Oxycontin has more oxycodone in it, but Percs will do!

Oxycodone doesn't have Tylenol in it either.

Also, let me add that I have the coolest friends ever. One particular friend found out I was bed ridden and couldn't do anything but veg out all day for the next week or so... So he brought over every single season of top gear to the most current episode, as well as over 100 new movies and other shows all on a harddrive which means I wont be bored AT ALL!

w00t to "ish", AKA Ryan, AKA the best man at my wedding and one of my best friends. Friends are so important in life, always remember that they will have your back when you need them as long as you return the friendly favor.

Friends > Cheap *****

worst part of it is the vacuum effect on your nose every time you try to swallow.
was down for 10 days convalescent leave. worst 10 days off of work ever.

had some good friends that took me to the medical center and drove me home afterwards.
