Please listen to everyone here.  Fentanyl is a very strong medication and people that aren't opioid tolerant shouldn't take it; it can be very dangerous.  In reality, no one should take anything without being under a doctor's care.

Hi Sarahmadison2006,

DO NOT USE THE PATCH!!!!  Go to your Doctor and ask for help!!!  Let them do an x-ray (EVEN THOUGH YOU DON'T HAVE INSURANCE)!!!  

NEVER use something that someone has given to you!!!!

Mooksmom is VERY correct about the patch!!!  I'm on the patch and have been for more than a year BUT I would have NEVER used it without it being prescribed for me!!!

Good luck.........Sherry

It's unclear as to IF the patch is prescribed for YOU or not, and I suspect that it is isn't. DO NOT USE IT! You could DIE.
