Glenn,

I am sorry to hear that your pain is so high

The nurse practioner who wants to take you off of the OxyContin - is he/she the ones who prescribes the OxyContin for you? Or is it another doctor prescribes the medication?

If the nurse practioner is not the person who prescribes the medication -- do you think the person who does prescribe it will be convinced to take you off of the meds?

I really wish that you had a more compassionate medical team. You have been through so much and you don't need additional stress put on your shoulders by your medical professionals

I hope that the pain gets better soon, and I hope that your medical team all gets on the same page so that they can help you instead of causing you stress.

Take care of yourself,
Liz
