One of the benefits of the fentanyl patches has been the consistency of the delivery of the drug which means that, after you adjust, you have no sense of being on a drug at all. There's no ups or downs because of the continuous delivery through your skin. I just felt completely normal other than having pain reduction. I've been able to work, to drive and right now, to finish up my thesis for my MBA.


Wendy, you have no idea how much what you said there brings me hope.
I need to finish my epidemiology thesis, and fast. Being on gabapentin really makes me foggy-headed, but I wasn't sure if by increasing my opioid, in order to drop the gaba, would make my head any clearer. Maybe I'll have another talk with my doctor...
I've honestly been afraid to drive while on gaba and morphine. I feel fine, but... it's morphine and gaba! My doc said he would leave the decision up to me about being able to drive... I'm just a chicken... lol
