It's getting so bad that I don't like to leave the house for fear of becoming sick in public and I carry around Pepto and plastic bags. Sorry to be so graphic. I am desperate!!! Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Kim,
I'm so sorry you are sick with pain meds. I also take vicodin. I take lorazepam-anti-anxiety med and all goes down well. I've only been sick, when in a flare. I know my mother was sick every day from cancer. Before the morphine, Dr. gave her valium to calm her stomach and that helped a lot. Have you asked your Dr. about pain patches? What does he suggest? Have you talked to a pharmacologist? My Dr. is a neuro, pharmacologist & psychiatrist, so trust my Dr.. Let us know what you find out -hope the stomach problems calm down SOON. Your friend, loretta soft hugs
