Chronic Pain
"I have ben on Fentanyl for more than three years now with great success, no major problems or side effects. Although about three months ago I started having some real bad side affects from the drug. After about 24-36 hours of putting on the patch I would start to get pain, agitation,sick feeling all over my body, fatigue, restlessness, very tired, neck and back muscular pain and bad headaches as well as confusion and the sweats etc.. All the classic symptoms of the patch not working properly. I am in the process of talking with my doctor about rectifying the problem with my dosage and time frame on how often to change the patch. If I knew how bad the feeling was to withdraw from this drug was i would have never taken it."
