The ms contin was 30 mg and the dialudid is 4. The dialudid helps better than the ms contin did but at night when I go to sleep I go about 8 hours and then the pain is waking me up and it takes half the next day to get it bearable. Right now I am in a flare and nothing seems to help. I have RSD in my foot and now my neck is in crazy pain running up the back of my head and down my shoulder. I am stressed it is the weekend and the ER just treats me like I am a drug addict looking for a high. So I guess I will try and make it till monday if possible. Thanks for the info.
