I have had this for a long time. Have tried many of the so called new medication . I am concerned about my future. I am on morphine. It works . I have my life back. At 62 years old I have been able to go back to work part time. Only 10 to 15 hours a week but it means the difference between my buying my own food or going to a food cupboard. Today I was reading some research on this disease. It frightens me. So much of what I read says opioids should not be used for us. I tried to go off of all opioids. Put myself in a rehab so I could try lyrica. I almost died from it. The conclusion was. This women will probably have to be on the opioid type drugs for the rest of her life. He concluded he saw no abuse of the opioid drugs I had taken and yet most all Dr's think people like myself are drug seekers. What is wrong with these people? I was at the point of suicide when I was in so much pain. I just can't believe we can put a man on the moon and yet there is no way to tell the real pain patient from the drug seeker. My doctor is getting up in age and I am starting to worry what will happen to me? I even had a doctors refuse to see me because I take morphine even though I was not asking to be seen for that reason. I was just looking for a good internist because I have a lot of medical problems. The one think I notice about your site is the fact that it hasn't been real active lately,Any reason for that? I would appreciate any input on my story.
Thank You for taking the time to read and hopefully respond to this.
