Cowboy - you said: "I am curious about the Fentenyl patches...." I have detailed my experience using the Fentanyl patches. Simply said - they work for me and has made my last 8½ yrs a dream world compared to my first 14 years of this horrific pain caused by Peripheral Neuropathy. It's a fact that these patches do not work for everyone, but then... what does? Based on my experience I think giving this medication a try is certainly worthwhile. I do recommend that the patient give the medication a fair trial...work with your doctor by not exaggerating the severity of the pain and using the medication only as directed.
I'm aware that some physicians have been busted by the DEA and this has made most doctors unwilling to prescribe an opiate for anyone regardless of the patient's severity of pain or it's cause. The problem is - the pain patient is the one who suffers. How can a physician whose credo is: "First, do no harm" and then turn around and refuse to treat his patient who is in terrible pain and then not even refer the patient to someone who does treat pain. Anyway, there are physicians who realize that pain is indeed a legitimate medical condition and deserves the best treatment available. Finding these doctors can be difficult so never...ever give up. Cowboy, I wish you the best and hope you find pain relief soon. WOW - we've come a long way from "Looking for a used Rebuilder".
