Was Paralyzed, On Oxycodone And Morphine For Pain. Now Back Has Rods And Screws That Hurts. Suggest?
I am a 26 year old male that was paralyzed 6 years ago and have been on oxycodone and morphine to help with the severe pain. My doctor was prescribing me 6 oxycodone 30mg a day plus 2 morphine 60mg a day I know that I should be weaned off these medications if she was going to stop prescribing them but she cut them off completely as she did everyone else and now my back that has plates and rods and screws in it at t-12 and hurts so bad that I scream in pain or I will lose my breath. My back cracks and crumbles to where you can hear it and feel it with your hand. I don't know what to do because it will probably take at least a month to get an appointment with another doctor. Can you please help guide me?
