I'm assuming you go to a pain clinic!. Have they tried nerve blocks!? Have you tried Fentanyl Patches!? What about a SCS!? You have MANY options! If you don't feel comfortable getting the morphine pump; don't! It's your body! I was offered a SCS (spinal cord stimulator) by my pain doctor and I just didn't feel right about it; so I didn't get it!. We tried alot of things; but now I'm back to pretty much pre-pain condition by using Fentanyl Patches!. I'm Sooo glad I didn't get the SCS and now I just have to wear patches!.!.!. So; don't give up!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Morphine is marvelous for chronic pain!. Unfortunately it also is highly addicting and has a lot of nasty side effects!. You can function on it, but you will experience constipation, loss of libido and probably not be nearly as mentally alert!. Your moods will probably not be as good, nor will you be as happy as you can be!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
