chronic pain
"I have chronic back pain for 23 years following a fall down a flight of stairs.  I ruptured 3 discs and fractured various vertebral areas in my lumbar and thoracic spine.  I also have Chronic Lyme Disease, Brucellosis and I have  developed Fibromyalgia and Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome in both lower extremities.  I have various types of paresthesia from burning to lancing. I have been on many types of Schedule II opioid pain medications from Fentanyl, Morphine, Hydromorphone, Oxycodone, Hydrocodone and Methadone. The best relief & safest medication has been the Morphine Sulfate Extended-release 200mg every 12 hours with 30 mg Oxycodone every 4 hours for breakthrough pain. I just wish it was less expensive since I do not have insurance"
