Hello fellow sufferers, Sorry I didn't get back sooner but things are still going bad, the pain is a little better but still keeps me up. I have used tamezepam for sleep, its like a half muscle...
Hello everyone, I can barely type because I'm doing so bad with pain, withdrawals, severe insomnia so I apologize in advance if I make any spelling/grammar errors, sorry., I just have one question (...
I have the some of the same issues as the OP. The problem is my doctor looks at me like a junkie because I ask or suggest for increasing my dose or changing my pain medicine because I am in severe...
By the way I had no idea Dr. Sanjays articles had such a big impact on MM. Most doctors I know are uptight, zero tolerance for anything, hate all drugs type like here in CT. Seriously most doctors...
Thanks a lot T-9, I will definitely check it out first.:-)...
Great idea. Thank you nvrthesame98 :-)...
I'm in too much pain to debate politics and which drug is better for your health long term or short term atm. I'm more interested in knowing if its a waste of time to suggest it to him and if not how...
Hi everyone:-) My new pain management doctor I got about five or six months ago is very conservative. I am tired of being on opiates and want to suggest medical marijuana, which is now legal in my...
I was given methadone awhile back and it took away my pain 100% and I never got a tolerance from it personally. So I ask this new guy if we could possibly go back to what works, methadone, and he...
Hi everyone :-) OK so I have been seeing this new PM doc for about five months now and he sucks. I tell him I'm in excruciating pain but he doesn't seem to care. He won't raise my dose of oxycontin...
Ah I see that was helpful. Thank you :-) I'll be in touch friends. My next PM appointment is coming up on June 12th. I actually stopped taking the fentanyl and I'm going threw a lot of pain and...
Thanks guys. I'll keep in touch. Cheerio:-) Edit : What does it mean in the pain community to " reset" your body? I have heard people say this several times. Does it mean just to reset it back to...
Nope never tried it so I might bring oxycontin up. Thanks...
Hmm..well I was thinking instead of out right asking for a specific drug, which would without question raise red flags, I was thinking maybe I would say something akin to " I read on a few pain...
I would rather not increase my dose for a few reasons ; 1) they are always falling off even with medical tape, tegaderm patches or whatever. I have oily skin, and sweat a lot , and I'm hairy which...

I'm on 50 mcgs now and still not getting much relief, if at all. Doesn't fentanyl work for everyone ? Or does everyone respond differently to different pain medicines, so where one pain medicine will...
Thanks Poweredbylove and everyone else for being so nice :-) Yeah I'm thinking of switching pharmacies because the pharmacy I go to seems to have terribly ineffective generics, its like they get the...
I heard about these two types of the patch myself and been wondering which one I'm taking as well. I believe I am taking the gel-pack type. Its about an inch across and an inch down( give or take),...
Your advice and opinion was great. Thanks a lot ;-) I don't know if I am going to like wearing a pain patch for the rest of my life, I think I would prefer a pill. I know I personally found wearing...
Hello everyone. Nice to meet you. Just started fentanyl patch. The 25 mcg's of fentanyl patch only works two days for me, but its supposed to last three days my PM doctor said. How long does it last...
Just wanted to pop in and say thanks for all your great replies. I'm adding everything you guys mentioned to my already existing pain management plan. Wish me luck on the 19th, which will be my...
Hi again, First off thanks to everyone thanks for your helpful, informative replies. I have yet to be put on any long lasting pain meds like oxycontin, MS contin, or any kind of pain patch. However a...
Sorry Screaming Eagle about mentioning suicide. I should of read the rules and FAQ so I would of known not to do that, but I am always too tired with my severe insomnia to read anything. Its hard for...
Hi everyone, A year and four months ago I got something called rhabdomyolysis , the doctors did not know how I got it but they think it was because I was over exercising and not drinking enough water...
