"i was given duramorph in my spinal tap for my 3rd cesarean. the side effects were horrible. after surgery, for several hours, i had difficulty breathing. i had to force myself to stay awake because every time i closed my eyes my respiratory rate dropped. this is a side effect of duramorph, but not everybody will have this side effect. i can tell you that after that surgery, the thought of having another cesarean made me ill.
