Hi and I do know just a little about morphine. What you are on is a very very low dose. Hydrocodone would work better as you have discovered. Extreme neck issues, failed surgery and another C3-7. I was on 60's three times aday with hydrocodone for breakthrough. I had to sign the contract too. Now that you have, call him and tell him it is not working at all. He is under contract with you too, to help you. It is not your fault this low dose is not working, you can't be afraid of your dr. or not talk to him. The only way they can help is by telling them the truth, loudly if you have to. I didn't care a bit if my doctor saw me cry or mad. There are other doctors also. Sometimes it is a fight to get the relief you need. I am not intimidated by any doctor, they are just humans too. I wish you all the best, and I hope he will up your medication until you get that relief. MS contin, or morphine does work in the proper dose, and I had no symptoms at all from it. Now getting off it, is another story....it is definately one that is hard to withdraw from/ I now take 30's twice a day 8 months post surgery. I can increase, or decrease, my pain specialist gives both 30's and 15's so I can adjust accordingly. He had given me epidurals, and made sure I got the help I needed. Don't settle for less. Ginnie
