Thanks Michael I hadnt seen this, but this has without question been the most successful baseline med I have ever take. It lowered my daily pain level from an 8-9 to a 5. My quality of llife daily has improved immensly although I still have breakthrugh problems and require oxycodone 3 times a day. But I have a rather severe case of rsd. My biggest loss was being allowed to drive. I can not and do not drive on these meds. Very upseting but well worth the daily pain reduction. I do hope anyone suffering as Lordwood is will try this. When it was finally givie to me I was in crisis last december, they tried everything first, fentynal etc. Nothing was touching my pain. Then within minutes of taking my first opana, a slight exaggeration, I had my first end to a 6 week flare of excutiating pain.Thanks again for posting this link. CZ
