Hi Sydney ~ Have you tried Methadone? That's what I'm on and it does a "fairly" good job. I'm UNDER-medicated, but most of us are. I think if he upped my dosage, I'd feel alot better, but so would everyone else if they got the proper dosage. LOL.

Really tho, Methadone works better (I think) than the MS Contin I was on. Maybe it just that it's been so long since I was on it, it's my imagination. LOL.

You might ask your doc about it. Best of luck and I pray your pain is relieved soon. God bless. Lee
