pain
"Have been taking Nucynta ER for nearly four years.  Have degenerative disc disease and the remnants of 7 torn discs in mid-thoracic to lumbar and a cervical bulging disc.  Have an old compression fracture in thoracic all caused by a 2009 accident, the torn discs are now practically non-existent and near bone to bone at several levels.  Nucynta has changed my life.  After taking Norcos and Roxy and others, do to no insurance at beginning, landed on Methadone as it was affordable.  3 years with Nucynta now, using nothing for breakthrough, would rather deal with little pain than be on more than have to.  Can think, am back to work and providing for my family!  It doesn’t fix everything, but has literally changed my life!"
