ADDICTION: SUBSTANCE ABUSE COMMUNITY
Morphine

Morphine

After 3 back operations I am addicted to the drug morhoine that they put me on, and this has apparently affected my large bowel by sending it to sleep which causes terrible bloating(like nine months pregnant). To stop the bloating and make the bowel work again I need to stop the morphine which is problemmatic as the morphine helps the pain. Has anyone similar problems? And what can I do...?

I experienced constipation while on meds but not what you're describing.  This sounds like something you need to speak with your physician about.  He/she may provide other meds for the bloating or restructure your pain meds.  Anyway...I believe that the bloating is not something any of us would want to accept on a day to day basis.
