New Meds Can Sure Suck Sometimes
 Desi,
 that the Kadien is making you sleep   so much. I think Kadien comes in a lower dosage with 20mg being the lowest http://www.kadian.com/pages/default.aspx maybe he can lower it to see how you do and then work you up or try a different med. I am so tolerant to medication most don't work very well on me.. don't know why.. It’s not that I have a bad reaction it just does nothing or not much at all so I tend to be a guinea pig most of the time  .. Just my luck I guess.. Anyways the Oxy I am on is 20mg am and 20mg pm and I don't get sleepy. I find that it last only 8 hours and then I start to feel pain again. That's the problem I have so either I need a higher dose or just a breakthrough pain med.
Hang in there, these pain meds need many adjustments and it can take awhile to find the right one for the right person...
Your doc sounds like a receptive guy... I bet he'll work it out for you..
Hey I know what it is you just want to see that Hotti Doctor   
Hang in there...
Many Gentle Hugs 
Dawn
