What are your thoughts on Pain Control
A quick note about me: Dx at age 52 Jan 2020 with PSA at 170. Eventually got started on ADT in April 2020 with PSA at 300. Gleason 7 3+4. Extensive bone mets all over my skeleton , as well as a few Lymph nodes. I had minimal pain, mainly back ache, which I thought at the time was due to a back injury

ALWAYS get a second opinion
Haldol works wonders for some people, yet it gave me a seizure like side effect and allergic reaction that I basically had to be stabbed with
cogentin
. If you aren't making progress, or are having bad side effects, research, talk to your current doctor, and get to know your pharmacist.

Dialysis & MS-contin (Morphine)
I started dialysis 4 weeks ago and I’m up to 4 hour treatments. At 3 hours the ms-contin was ok, at 4 hours it bleeds off all ms-contin and I end up in excruciating pain for about 36 hours before I get the chronic pain under control. Has anyone gone through this or have any recommendations on other drugs

Why are benzos so vilified and how do I bring this up with a new doctor without sounding like a drug seeker?
Result: Complete body dystonia, a swollen tongue, seizure like eps where I needed to be stabbed with
cogentin
to calm my body that was the equivalent of a scene from the exorcism of Emily Rose. Gabapentin caused dizziness, drowsiness and confusion.

Back pain
Hey my friends just checking to see if any of you have ever had RFA on you back? My pain management doctor wants to do that because other than pain meds there is nothing that can be done for my back. I saw a neurosurgeon and she did mri with contrast. She said that she would have to give me a whole

Merster here finally with some clarity
I have been fighting rls for 3 yrs now. Sometimes contemplating what kind of soution suicide might be as nothing else was relieving the horrible insomnia and daily pain and nerve sensations it was producing. I was on a low dose pain management drug ms contin until heart surgery in 2015 and thought

Methadone treatment or not?
I have been on Ropinerole 2 yrs along with 120 mg daily ms contin ( morphine) and it is not working anymore. Back to square one. I told my family doc I am suicidal ( to get his attention) and it did. We talked at length about another plan of attack and from what I have read suggested getting rid

Xofigo
Started Xofigo last week and having lots of nausea/vomiting and stomach upset. Any advice or similar people having these issues. My husband has had stage 4 prostrate cancer since May 2013 with mult mets. He is on a high dose of MS Contin and we are hoping Xofigo will decrease his pain and need for high

REBOUND INSOMNIA
I am Rx 30mg Restoril, 50mg Vistaril, 5-20mg zyprexa depending on each night, ultracet and 1mg
cogentin
. I might take my klonopin tonight and skip the zyprexa. Will I have any withdrawls from zyprexa? Can I take Rozerm instead of the zyprexa since I have been on it only 20 days?

Neck pain after VM
I have baclofen which helps some and recently found that the old drug
cogentin
, I had some from a previous health experience, eases it (try it out if you are suffering, can't hurt at this point!) I feel like it's getting worse.

Is anyone else allergic to Sinemet?
I've worked my way through Symmetrel (Amantadine) and
Cogentin
(Benztropin Mesylate) and I used the Neupro patch successfully up until it was recalled in the US (2008). Right now I use a combination of long acting Requip (Ropinirol) and a transdermal Emsam (Selegeline) patch.
