Brook I haven't talked to you yet but I am on the methadone treatment which is
regulated to the extreme. I couldn't function for at least a month but now I am
doing OK I do take other meds but anytime we add one I have to deal with
reactions for a week and then see if the new meds work. I couldn't deal with the
Morphine however, I seriously wanted to hurt people, made me mean. I know
everybody is different but my biggest fear is when the doses wear off completely
then what?

Hi ther Vannessa ,,,, so sorry that is happened to you. There are not
many people that I know that can function on meth. Let alone the other
meds. Sad that we all haveto go thru this. I would talk to dr about
another route. Or seeing if there is a pain dr management around close
to you. It is hard one with rsd for real. We all have had a nitemares
with drs that is for real. Hope that there is a pain management dr
around. Really do.
