I Would Like To Know About Pain Medication
I was wondering if you could share with me what pain pill some are taking. Narcotics all the way to natural
I take 1 morphinene ir (immediate release) and a half percoset per day. But when I was first diagnosed I took 2 - 12 hour morphine per day for some serious back pain.
Fentanyl
Anyone using fentanyl or fentanyl patches for back pain. What has your experience been?
Fentanyl....turned into a sore memory for me. I hope I never need it. When used properly, it's a good thing for people
I've Not Seen Much Discussion Here On The Subject Of Pain Management SPECIFICALLY Related To Using Opioids. Why Is That Do You Think?
For instance, I've had severe CPIN for over a decade due to Velcade and the only pain med that helps reduce the pain is Percocet. Any folks here in similar situation? Are you using opioids for pain relief? If so, what is your daily dosage?
Has Anyone Out There Had Shingles And Can You Share Your Experience?
If you HAVE NOT had shingles get the vaccine for it please. It’s not an easy thing to cope with. Be surreal to get medical support
With Myeloma Is Bone Pain Constant? Is It Worse With Even Minor Activity? Thank You One And All. Cheers
I started this journey 15-16 years ago. They FINALLY figured it out after I had 7 compression fractures. The back pain would bring me to my knees. They finally sent me to a pain doctor who started me… read more
Once A Month Migraine Any Thoughts?
Last two months have had a migraine with nausea at the end of my Revlimid cycle. Wipes me out for two days. Anyone else experiencing this. Any suggestions?
I've had 6 vaccine injections in the last week -- my arms alternate being sore, but it is a good soreness. DIL has Covid (school teacher with her shots) so I cannot see my local grandchildren or son… read more
Is There Anything Available Stronger Than Tylenol Or Advil For That Could Be Used On A PRN Basis?
My husband is experiencing more pain all over. Has been reluctant to use any kind of pain medicine. Only takes Tylenol or Advil ir Aleve. Has achy legs and feet, rib pain and back pain.
I use Percoset every now and then and it works good for me. If you have continual pain I would see a real pain specialist ... at MDAnderson they have a pain clinic specifically for their cancer… read more
Has Anyone Experienced Excruciating Leg/foot Pain?
My leg pain was so bad I could not eat, sleep, walk... I was miserably in pain even when I was on Percocet the pain was still present. The only treatment that helped with most of my leg pain was Radiation therapy. My foot still has some pain left and throbs (prob from dissolving blood clots).
Has anyone out there had this experience with leg/foot pain? If so can we chat?
I used to not be able to wear shoes coz i felt like my feet were on fire until my husband started massaging every night with wintergreen oil or any sport cream, it helped a lot but did not completely… read more
I Have Severe Neuropathy Pain
Do anybody suffer with severe neuropathy pain as a result of the chemo received doing treatment and the stem cells transplant. Well I do every day. In addition to that every now and then the severe pain becomes worst than normal. On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the worst it’s a 10 or more. I’m in that stat now as I write this with pain that brought tears to my eyes so I’m struggling to do this because for once I need an answer. Sometimes I feel alone when it happens. Please i have to know is… read more
Pain Management.
Like so many with MM, pain is a major symptom. My husband is on Tramadol (an opiod) and Tylenol. Tylenol causes his kidney function numbers to rise, so he's hesitant to use this. And of course as we all know, opiods can and usually are addictive. CBD has been suggested, but he is also on blood pressure medication and has been told not to use CBD. So none of these choices is good. My question is: What are others doing for pain management? Also, has anyone had accupuncture, and if so, did… read more
