are you sure the hives were from the fent patch?

i have had several problems with fent in the past especially when it was changed at 72hrs, now at 48hrs life is better. i broke out in hives and had tons of pain and all kinds of side effects this summer when i tried lipitor. we couldnt figure out what was going on since i was on it over 3 weeks when the bumps stated but once i stopped at about 5 weeks, everything got better so my point is sometimes a med can take weeks and not hours or days before you get side effects. any new med in the past month??

there is no other med even close to fentanyl so i can feel for your pain and i agree humans should not have to suffer this much.
