Pain
"I had anterior lumbar fusion - implants, plates you name it, in November 2008.   My third surgery - Post operation, I was sure something went wrong due to the agonizing 24/7 pain. I was taking combination of 12-14 Norcos or Percocets a day.  Was shocked by how much pain pills I was burning through. My surgeon could find anything wrong. All in all, a humbling, frightening experience. Then I was prescribed MS-Contin and the agony is over.  Now I&#039;m planning to return to work. I&#039;m walking again. My wife is weeping with joy instead of mourning.

MS-Contin saved my life."
