Hi Gerry, can I add my thoughts here, have you heard of Targin? It is narcotic still but with less side effects. It contains oxycodone/naloxone together which is intended to reduce constipation associated with opiate use. The naloxone also targets neuropathic pain. Maybe one to run by your by PM and see if they are making combination drug in high enough dose for your purpose. I think it's fairly new you can get it in Australia on PBS, not sure about US.
