I’m done going to pain clinics. They can no longer help me. I’ve become immune to hydromorphone. It’s like taking Tylenol now because I have been taking it for too long. I’m allergic to morphine, and I get sick from Oxycodone. Pain pumps/pain stimulators don’t work with my type of pain per four doctors. I’m at a loss because I don’t get relief of any kind and my pain level is worse then torture.

I had no choice but to hook up with pain clinic. None of my providers are allowed to prescribe pain meds similar to what I took in the past. Opoids in modest doses provided the only effective pain relief I had in 30 years.
On Butrans now at a low starting dose. I need dental surgery and must jump through many hoops just to get post operative meds for surgery! So frustrating...
Everything hurts. I am 69 with a variety of documented chronic diseases. THC/MJ/CBC are all available but do not address my pain.
My heart goes out to those who have struggled with addiction. But where is the compassion for the millions
suffering daily with no quality of life?
A rhetorical question-- I
Just needed to talk it out.
