I too have been using a narcotic for my PN pain - in just 6 more days I will have been using the Duragesic Patch (now it's generic form: Fentanyl Transdermal System) - for 7 YEARS! without any problems. In March I will be 77 years old and as of this moment I plan to continue using this medication for my untreated constant 7 to 9 levels of pain.
For those who have found pain relief thru other methods - HOORAY for them. I have tried every med and procedure the Neuros and Pain Specialists offered including Lyrica. They just didn't work for me nor did exercise and supplements. After 15 years of horrendous pain I started these patches on 1-9-02 and my life literally changed.
So, if whatever you use or take works - then stick with it - and be thankful.
