I just ran out of Flexeril and my back is KILLING me. It's been locked up in spasms all day. I wonder if Targin is available here in the states....I would definitely try it if so. Between the Fentanyl patches and the Percocet and everything else sometimes the constipation gets really bad and the OTC stuff (Miralax in my case) doesn't always work!

Oh no LexiRae best be refilling your flexeril, I think I need to let my body adjust to this, all I want to do is sleep, lucky so far it's been evening and during the night. Today wii be the real test to see if it is helping me, I am planning on staying home anyway.

My pain doctor suggested Targin for me they are not something my pharmacy keeps in stock so they will have them for me by the weekend.
For me they are the right medication.

Rose not sure if you like prunes or not but many on here eat 4-5 a day and it works. You cannot eat too many or you will have a different problem, lol. I had to have an emergency resection back in 2002, ended up with chronic diahrea as a result of that surgery. We hoped when I had to start on narcotics it would slow things down, no such luck. One is just as bad as the other.

Hope you start feeling better soon......Susie
