Thanks Ed, for responding. i was hoping someone would.
i tried Duragesic patches last year but became so sick because i work in greenhouses where the temperature is usually above 115 degrees F in the summer and i'm running around so much that it releases too quickly. i need a high dose because of the severe pain and just weigh 100 lbs so OD is easy.
so discouraged.Dr won't prescribe anything else and wants to take me off of opiods anyways.
Had a horrific time getting a nerve block procedure.Tears. The source of my pain is not apparant and he's backing out on treating me at all. which makes everything impossible - i can't live in the severe pain. Hopefully the nerve block steroid injection will begin to help in 3-7 days as he said and will help. It was a nightmare to get today- my Dr is sadistic - he wouldn't give sedation as planned beforehand. i never want to trust him again but have no one else to treat me.
Bad place. Sorry to vent. You're so kind to respond.
Thank you, Ed.Take care,
kerria
