I think people have a hard time understanding how much pain we are in I'm on my 2nd pump and doing great. I had a hard time because of the use of Morphine . These pumps are not given out like candy, they are offered to patients in severe and unrelenting pain. At this point you have tried everything and there really nothing left to do. You become drug dependent not drug addicted, there is a big difference. You cannot control the amount of drugs that are dispensed the doctor has to increase the amount or approve any changes. At the time I received the pump I was taking the maximum amount of oral medications.
Your pain isn;t magically going to go away. Good Luck.
