In severe pain too
I was lucky to get 30mg ms contin twice a day. I have been on this same dose since 2009. It is not working well anymore but my dr will not increase or change medication to try for more relief. Boy, you are lucky to get fentanyl patch. I have not heard of ketamine. Let me know if this works out. I suffer chronic pain so bad. I am at my wits end but afraid to say anything because you know they already look at you as a drug seeker / addict if you complain of pain. I can't function in my life and haven't been for a long time. Good luck to you.
