Put my 1st patch on a few days ago. It is for 5mcg, and other than a "new" low-grade headache and my usual pain, I feel nothing. Was started at the lowest dose and told there would be a period of adjustment. Hopefully the patches are in 5 mcg increments so I can find some relief for my chronic pain, sooner than later.

Thanks for the tip on the arm location etc. That was all perplexing to me since it was to stay on for a week.
