Hey Gardengirl,
I was just going to post about a very similar situation! So, I think I get where you're coming from. My morphine seems to be wearing off in less than 4 hours these days, so three times a day dosing really isn't cutting it (it's for nerve pain). I know I need it, but stepping up to oxycontin is just something I was trying to avoid for some reason... But I think, if you need it, you need it, right? Hopefully we'll be better off with it. And I guess we can always go back to less once things start looking better. (Can you tell I've been self pep-talking? lol How lame am I!? lol) Let me know what your doc has to say. If you can pass along any info, I'd appreciate it.
Really will be hoping for the best for you.
Hugs!
