YES. YES. YES. I have AS, without oxycodone (Perc 10/325), I am in CONSTANT pain, can't sleep more than 3-5 hours at a time and basically just hate life because of the pain. Without my Percecets I wouldn't be able to attend college or work. Oxycodone allows me to live a normal, relatively pain-free life. If you're in pain 24/7, then get the drug. If you really do not need the drug to live normally and enjoy life, then please don't use it.
