I have not been able to afford any crohns meds until now. I have neuropathy, rls, foraminal stenosis and narrowing of my upper spinal disks,fibromyalgia and arthritis...so, it's not just my crohns...
No, they complied with what my dr had rx'd BUT when you're in the middle of a bowel obstruction 30 mgs of oxy is NOT going to TOUCH that pain! They were willing to give me iv dilaudid for the first...
Wow! Good to hear I'm NOT alone! I have ONE dr who does my pain mgmt. I do NOT have a history of substance abuse at ALL! I always request to "read" my chart because they always get a ton of mistakes...
