Thanks nvthesame. I have a correction from my earlier post. I said morphine has a very long half life. I meant methadone.
You are now on 15 mg morphine cr. that is great! That is the lowest dose so if your pain is under control I am happy for you. I was on 30mg 3xday and didn't want to go up.
For now the butrans is working on day 2. I have heard it takes 4 day to actually notice a difference. Also, I am now having a bowel movement on my own with no laxatives! That makes me happy. My pain levels were up last night so I took vicoprofen and back down they went.
I have notice one side effect. Whenever I take a vicoprofen I seem to get a small headache.
Have a great day!
