What Causes Severe Tinnitus And Insomnia After Using Soma And Oxycodone?

I take soma, and oxycodone on a daily basis for back and head pain. The last three months I have become extremely physically weak, have the worst insomnia I have ever had and am losing my voice. I also have severe Tinnitus. Do you have any advice, I live 20 miles out of the nearest small city. Thank you

It's rather random to have a drug effect 3 months after starting it. On the other hand there are a very large number of other things besides medicines that cause weakness, change in sleep and tinnitus. ear infection comes to mind. However, it is very Unlikely that you have multiple months of these medicines on board since refills are between discouraged (soma) and illegal (percocet). At each doctor visit the side effects and/or new symptoms someone has should be discussed.
