Had PN for 12 years now I have been on Morphine Sulfate 30mgs 2x/day and 150mgs Lyrica 3x/day for about 5 years. I have tried other meds, Cymbalta, Trileptal, Neurontin, Amytriptaline, Noratryptaline Oxycodon, Vocodin.... The regimen I'm on now seems to work better than any other I've been on. The problem is that in the evenings when the pain is the worst I smoke marijuana to releive the breakout pain and able to get some sleep.

Recently my Dr drug tested me to be sure I wasn't abusing the drugs and discovered the marijuana. The result is they are weaning me off the morphine which she said they were going to do anyway because someday I will need more morphinme and new studies show that chronic pain patients do not really need their pain meds (I am still wondering if thats a joke one me somehow). I was wondering if anyone else has had this experience and how it went. I'm very scared about this change as you can imagine.

Can anyone relate?
