chronic pain
"My doctor prescribed me Fentanyl patches for my severe, ongoing testicular and pelvic pain (50 mcg) and the patch did absolutely nothing. I waited 72 hours for it to reach its full effect and still nothing. I went through the entire box of patches (while using as directed) and experienced no pain relief to speak of. I even applied two patches at once one time and didn't notice much. You also have to be very careful all the time to make sure the patch doesn't fall off, especially while showering. Switched back to MS Contin."
