PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THIS One problem with the Actiq suckers is that you only absorb, at MoST, half of the fentanyl in the sucker, 1/4 through your gums and...

The Actiq suckers I know first hand do many things to harm your body. At least they did mine. They also have a tendency to make you need more and more of them...

Jay, Quite the interesting post. Please keep me in the loop when you are able to begin using the Prialt. Sounds almost too good to be true. How long did you ...
I'd like some information from Brent regarding the effect of cone snail venom in the pump. I've had a pump for 10 years and I've developed a tolerance to most...
Jay; I know Brent is having a tough time moving around so I will just give you the name of the product and if he gets online, he can fill; you in. My hope and...
Thanks Keith! I hope all is well with you. I'll ask my doctor if he can get access to it. He's chief of anesthesiology at a major cancer center in Tampa. ...
I had my accident in 83, with back to back spinal fusions at Mayo Rochester. The fusions failed. I have a pain pump, not a stimulator. I had it implanted in...

Here is the article Brent gave us the link to; Nature 429, 798 - 799 (24 June 2004); doi:10.1038/429798a Venomous snails: One slip, and you're dead... The...

I've been asking my pain doctor if he can find Prialt, which is the chemical derivative of the cone snail venom for pain pumps. I got the call today that he...
Morphine is perhaps the toughest drug to use as it heavily clouds the thinking process. It reduces pain by dulling all of your senses. Fentanyl and Prialt stop...
Thanks Keith. I already am at zero alcohol and zero tobacco. I will be more cognizant of chemicals around the house. Living in Tampa is kind of nice, as there...
Here's today's update from Jay: I got Prialt put in the pump yesterday. The initial dose is 1 microgram. It is added to the hydromorphone and Klonidine. This...
Thank you Jay for the news about the Prialt. Haven't heard from Brent for at least 2 weeks now. I will phone him in the morning. Just to put the dose of Prialt...
Thanks Keith! It is early Saturday and I'm feeling some pain relief. I think I can actually feel some relief. Any reduction in pain relief is appreciated. I...
We are talking 1000 times more powerful than morphine in a raw form, but your math is a little flawed. Remember, the math on meds directly into the spine is...
My insurance has not approved the prialt yet. What dose did he start you at? The packet recommends 2.4 micrograms per day, but my do starts people at .75...
VERY Nice to hear from you Brent. My concern about Jays dose, as I read his e-mail was based on the figures you provided about the dose you had and reading...
Sorry, you are right, I was thinkning of milligram as a gram. One milligram is at least 6 month's dose. Elan figures that the average will be between 14 and...
Brent and everyone else: I was mistaken. My dose is one microgram per day. I still don't feel much relief, but know that he will raise it up gradually until I...
