I've cancelled the cleaner and for the first time in over 15 months put on a duragesic 50mg patch. Yes I will get an angry angry allergic reaction to the adhesive, but it's just too bad, to bear this pain in this relentless heat above 37c is more than a koala can bear! The frustrating thing is the duragesic fentanyl patches work, but, the side effects they give me in the long run are far too much. I will take it off tomorrow and be thankful for at least one day with moderate rather than severe pain. Very much looking forward now to seeing my rep and PM and getting this stim sorted. It's frustrating to not even be able to stretch or get relief by putting my arms above my head. Sorry, just feeling sorry for myself, for those reading this and contemplating stims, take heart, they do work, I've just had complications and all will get better.
