Chronic Pain
"I broke my back in 02, i was sent home 4 hrs after being told i broke my back in 2 places.  It was a Saturday morning and i was handed 2 demerol pills and told to get a hold of my family doctor for full time pain management.  I was put on 8mg hydromorphone every 4 to 6 hours.

After being told the fractures were mended, i had a whole bunch of uninary problems, and paralysis to parts of my body for a week to 5 months.  

After being told everything had mended i tried to go back to work, i just couldnt wasnt enought pain control so dr added 150mcg/h of fentanyl.

Now i only take the Hydromorphone for break through pain"
