Chronic Pain
"I have Degenerative disc disease (DDD), a grade 2 spondylolisthesis at L5-S1, arthritis, and other chronic pain issues. Like others I&#039;ve tried Vicodin, Percocet, oxycodone, suboxone, subutex, and now Belbuca because my insurance won&#039;t cover Subutex!! It makes NO SENSE to me that they&#039;ll cover something that costs more than twice the price but doesn&#039;t even begin to help as much as Subutex did!!!! I like being on buprenorphine because I feel like I get enough pain relief to make it bearable, but Belbuca not only won&#039;t stay stuck to my cheek like it says it will it gives me headaches DAILY!!!!! I&#039;ve been on it for a little over 2 weeks and had to give myself 2 migraine shots this past week!! I couldn&#039;t tell you the last time I had to give myself 2 within 2 months!!"
