Hi guys! It has been quite a while since I posted here. The pain was so high that I retreated from everyone and everything. I had my stimulater removed because the implant had moved over my tailbone! No wonder it hurt to sit down!
Anyway, I got the pain pump installed 6 weeks ago, and am happy so far. The only problem is that I am withdrawing from all the oral meds. I am blessed that it hasn't been bad. I am off norco, Percocet, and methadone. The last of methadone should be out in a couple weeks and then we can adjust the morphine pump.

If anyone has questions about the pump, I am here to help. Hope you are all getting soft hugs and compassion.

I am glad to hear you got some relief with the new pain pump and the stimulator issue has been resolved. Keep us posted.

I haven't seen many with a pain pump. You may want to check the stimulator and pain pump side. I know there was someone a couple months back asking questions on their.
Is dilaudid and morphine your only options?

I am interested in the pump but my biggest prob is total body muscle wasting. It's so depressing. I think I would need a small amt of baclofen...maybe?
