I just thought I'd throw it out there for you, since I have similar problems - DDD, stenosis, OA and such.

This patch is about 4" x 5" and it's a stretchy fabric, so it moves with you. Doesn't leave a sticky bandaid type residue, and you can, if you want, move it a couple times without it losing it's stickiness.

I'm getting more done, sleeping better, and in a better mood. My pain is down to half what it was before with no other meds. I have muscle relaxers, but I seldom need them.

I have had no side effects.

Thanks everyone for your advice and info.

I am now taking the Tramadol at an increase of dosage.

That is what I was taking before. It worked when the body was
not hurting that bad.

I am feeling less pain with the increase. Hope that it stays that way
because I did'nt have any problem with this med.

My daughter passed away Feb 24, 2008 due to over dose of fentanyl patch 50. Beware of this medication. There are numerous cases of OD with this patch.

I'm very sorry to hear about your daughter's death Nanejd. That was so very tragic in the circumstances, and would have hurt you badly.

I would however, like to take this opportunity to welcome you to NeuroTalk. Please let us know if there's anything in particular we can help you with.
