Chronic Pain
"After 20 yrs of tension-migraines, 10 years of fibromyalgia and an SI sprain to the left hip, I thought I&#039;d never know normal again. I can fake being well enough to make others comfortable, but I rarely am. Butrans was prescribed 3 months ago and my constant inconsistent days of pain from 3-9 varying on weather, mood, stress, exercise etc. is finally becoming more stable! The lows are gone. The higher peaks are 6-7 now and more rare. I&#039;m on 15mcg/hr every 7 days. Slight itching at patch site but with proper skin prep and rotation I&#039;ve had no other issues. This med, and low dose percocet ave given me my life back! Constipation has been my only side effect, but it is nothing compared to what I&#039;ve lived with for so long."
