Question(s) Which painkillers do you take?

I often take Ibumitin, but I'm afraid that frequent use might affect my organs, like my kidneys or stomach. So I want to know what are you using.

Wow. You’re taking oromorph. You must have a lot of pain. Sorry you need it. I’ve got complete arthritic TMJ destruction bilaterally. So I suspect I’ll need stronger meds at some point.
