Thanks for that clarification jenatsky, much appreciated. I didn't know there was a bupe patch for pain. I'm glad it works for you.

If you ever did stop using the patch, I wonder if you would go through withdrawal symptoms similar to sublingual use of bupe. Did your Dr. talk about this?

@heyjoe415 I have not discussed going off the Buprenorphine patch and see no reason to consider it. I’ve got primary spinal OA, spinal stenosis, peripheral neuropathy and with the patch my pain level hovers around 4 out of 10. I use cannabis gummies now for breakthrough pain control and I haven’t needed any Percocet since using cannabis gummies.
