I need off Morphine
by Irisheyestwo, Sep 02, 2009 08:19PM
I have Chronic Pain, and I have been on Morphine for over a year, I get so sick, if I forget a pill or I get the flu and can't keep it down I start going through withdraws, I don't know what to do. I want off, I have a pain doctor, but they never seem to want to help you get off the drugs just on them. I am afraid to even live alone right now cuz I get sick so often. Any sugguestions?

do you think you can do a taper? you dont state if you are addicted/abusing or just dependant on them? if you are not over using/abusing you may be able to do a very good successful tapering plan. HOw much are you on a day/what mg/how many x a day? also are you on a time release or instant release formulation? if its a time release kind, you will have to ask your dr. about switching to an immediate release type so you can taper better because as you know you cant break apart/crush time release medicines. Post again and let us know so we can better help you here.
