Pain
"I have been using the fentanyl 75mg patches for 2 months after gradual increase from 25 to 50 to 75mg changed every 72 hours, I have degenerative bone in my cervical spine and I am having tests for inflammatory arthritis (rheumatoid). I do notice the pain coming back on the third day - a few hours before I need to change it. The sweating on the first day I awake and the dry mouth are not pleasant at all but a small price to pay for better quality of life. I have gone from active horse owner and working to being on disability. I was in so much pain I was having days of work and many days unable to get up. I am unable to do my horse any more but I don&#039;t feel as much pain and that is what counts."
