Chronic Pain
"I have Chronic Lyme disease which has caused chronic pain.  The Drs have tried just everything but nothing seems to help.  I was on 125mcgs of Fentanyl with 32mgs of Dilaudid and still in full blown pain 24/7.  I was detoxed off the Fentanyl with Suboxone (not a pleasant experience) and the hope was the Suboxone would address my pain but it didn&#039;t.  The Dr. seemed to think the BuTrans patch 20mg might help so I started on it six days ago.  I don&#039;t feel a huge difference pain wise but I have had non stop headaches and a total lack of motivation to do even the smallest of tasks.  I really don&#039;t know if i should continue on it, whether the headaches will slowly subside or if I should tear the patch off so I don&#039;t have to go through withdrawal?"
