For those that are on the patch and the pill, are you still able to work and function with other daily activities, or does it take away all of your energy? I am currently on opoid medication, but am considering inquiring with my doctor about the patch. Just wondering if I am able to work full time, otherwise I won't bother. @deefl

shellsk24, I use a pain patch which I like much better than any pill. It works better giving even distribution of medication and it is out of sight, there is no taking pills in the middle of the work day. It just depends on what you want and working with your doctor. 19lin
