HI Dan!
Thanks for the info! I've been on the 50mg (generic)patch for 3 months and it just doesn't cut the pain. I'm going to see my pain dr. soon and will talk to him about raising the dose. I'm so tired of dealing with this pain day in and day out...and it's worse when it's raining and/or cold out. I can hardly wait for summer!! Thanks again! Roxie

He can be a good source to guide you thru the medical up's down's and biases some docs mite have about prescribing it...Worth a trial, no?
It's also great to hear that you got cleared on the disability so easily! Knew you were smart enuf to get all YOUR ducks in line...then shoot down the bad ones!  And you've been thru and now going thru so much more! Life isn't RIGHT to good people at times! May we all be able to greet spring with a smile and some silly things to laugh at! At times, just a giggle at something can heal the soul and the heart to give the mind the strength to go on and BEAT IT! Whatever it is... Hugs, good things and heaps of hugs!  - got that? - j

In my above reply to Roxie about the Duragesic Patch I mentioned "dependency and addiction". This site will explain it more thoroughly:
