Guest guest Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 *Hi Tommie,* *I hope this finds you doing ok pain wise. I was woken up early with bad sharp pains again and im definately going to be calling the dr. I HATE meds and hate the fact ive had to been on them for these yrs with rsd. I always get scared of addiction, i have what my dr calls a ''sensitive system'' so i dont take to meds very easily. I was on this fentanyl a few yrs ago and i am so scared now to hear anyone going on this medication and when i read something where a dr mentions it for pain i get on bandwagon and at least send some links and info. So many people take their drs word as gods and dont always get all the inffo they need (no offense to drs at all..i have an amazing dr now whos treated n saved me basically for past 3 yrs however i have had experience in past back home in ct with a pain mgmt dr who just wrote scripts, didnt really listen to me n sent me on way and that was that .....i hate that!!!! But i just like to try to inform ppl. even if i dont always reply to msgs i always try to at least open n quickly skim.* ** *You mentioned that a woman had killed her husband with fentanyl and thats an issue too....there have actually been a couple of instances of this happening. There was one case i saw on tv n read about where a woman who worked at a morgue i believe it was and in med field had access to this med, knew the strength and how to use it fatally to kill her husband.....im a HUGE true crime buff n love to read when i can get my concentration straight but i watch court tv/tru tv its called now, 'we' channel as they have this show called ''snapped as well as other shows. i think it was actually snapped where i saw the story of this wife using the fentanyl that way..* *when people e these drugs, pills ect in bad ways such as to feed an addiction, hurt others or sell to kids that hurts US who are in pain and makes it hard to get the meds we need to help ease our pain. Drs get worried about writing the scrpts and being held accountable ect...its sad.* *Ok hun sorry for the ''book'' i wanted to write u quick. I woke up so early, dennis woke with me n is sleeping in other rm - this stuff takes a toll on him too. how can he stay asleep next to me when im wimperin n crying. I try to get outta bed as quick as possible but often times like today i just couldnt move so he helped me, got my meds n a snack for me to take meds with. i feel bad for what this has done on him...* ** *Thanks for being such a good friend and im sorry youve also been thru ringer with pain and lifes crap that weve been dealt. im headin to post office in a bit after i get him up- we taped the box up really good so hopefully itll hold up and like i said do NOT lift it yourself- see if your son /mailman or neighbor can help u bring into kitchen so u can unload.* *luv ya hun* *your sister in pain* *rachael* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
