Pain
"My lifelong Dr retired a year ago, he prescribed me Meperidine 100mg tabs QID, and MS Contin 60mg TID. Best relief and combo for pain EVER! No side effects, NO pain! He also gave me IM shots of Meperidine 100ng-150mg, mixed with Valium 10mg in office, as needed for breakthrough Crohns symptoms. My new doctor kept me on the MS Contin, but refuses to provide Meperidine. He switched me to Oxymorphone IR 10mg, 1-2 tabs QID as needed. It doesn&#039;t come close to providing the pain relief the Meperidine did, for my back, shoulder, and Crohns related pain! I don&#039;t know what the big deal is with the Opana, it sure doesn&#039;t help me at all!! Show me all the charts you want to, Opana does not work as good as Demerol!, nor anything else I&#039;ve been put on!"
