@catgmom9 I have no overdosed with my pump(have had it over three years with no pain relief except for one day). My only negative effect has been nausea and vomiting. I'm not even sure the vomiting is an after effect of the hydromorphone in my pump. I know that after I had it amped up to 4.2 mg/24 hours, I had a sudden series of vomiting. I also experienced vomiting after my two trials. First with morphine and the second with the hydromorphone. It seems very odd that this keeps happening. No one else on this site seems to have experienced this same side effect. Am I the only one. How about you?

@heisenberg34 and all... So sorry... the vomiting is a tough side effect and, yes, my 57 year old son experienced severe vomiting for a time, tapering to less but still there. He takes Zofran as needed if it'it's continues. I also got Bonine ear patches, for sea sickness. They do help!
I started him on an excellent daily Probiotic by Probulin. Referred by doc for my IBD. It helps him greatly with diarrhea and vomiting issues. A good add.
He has Dilaudid and Backlofen in his pump. Morphine did nothing but make him vomit. No pain relief. Dilaudid is helping.
Hope this helps you some.
Blessings, Elizabeth
