DEW,
I'm SO sorry this is happening to you.
With all you have going on in life.


I've heard of Opana's relief "tapering off".

I agree with Marleen, Sandy and all.

Your DR should have an emergency line!
(I can get a return call from my doctor within 5 minutes, day or nite).

I also agree that methadone is the most successful drug for this type of pain that rsd causes.
(I think it's just a matter of time before our ins. companies have most of us on it).
But, I don't know that you're going to get that prescribed without being seen.

If you can get through to your doc, he may allow you to up your dose, or Opana, before he sees you again.
Perhaps you can take a couple of "Aleve"s, as my doc recommends that, (and it helps). believe it or not. (The reason I seem to remember, is since your body has apparently acclimated to the Opana, just something different, will "break" the pain for you.) Aleve works best for me, of all the OTC pain relievers.
I truly wish I had better news.

Get yourself as comfortable and in a "stress free" place until you can hear from your doctor!


Pete
