Re: -- A PRISON OF PILLS-- To Bonnie

Nope.  Hydrocodone is not morphine.  I am saying that I hope I don't ever have

the need to take morphine for pain because of how sick it made me the one time I

had it.

I was so much like that. Always trying to remember which pills I

needed to take now. I finally said enough was enough and decided to

come off all but what was absolutely necessary. I now only take

insulin and Relafen.

All the medication combined actually made me suicidal. I went

inpatient in the hospital because I was on large doses of fentanyl

and morphine and that was the only way to come off. I live with so

much pain every day but I have my life back! I have learned to use

other ways of dealing with the pain, stretching, warm baths,

meditation, anything but the meds again. I know a lot of people

cannot deal with the pain but I like knowing what I am doing and not

being spaced out anymore.. Have you tried alternatives to medications?
