pain
"I have now been on butrans patch for 3 months.initially starting on 5mg then increasing to 10 mg after the first month

This is to manage chronic pain in my right arm due to impinged nerve on c5.



I was originally on same meds as previous times solpadol and pregabalin increased from 75mg x2 per day to 150 x 2 per day plus 75mg. I just couldn't function on them they made me quick to respond and affected my memory and life.



Never looked back after butrans patch I am much more like the real me still slight pain but bearable enough to manage without painkillers. Have gone from getting home and going straight to bed to at least having some normality again.

Makes me feel a bit tired after work but good side is dulls appetite so have lost 1 stone."
