What Causes Chronic Back Pain Despite Taking Morphine?
I have been taking prescription Morphine 15 mg tablets for a few months now and they seem to have lost their potency now, tolerance I assume, what should be the next step to help me withmy chronic back pain I have tried many other things from seeing neuroligists having back injections etc. They say they can t find anything wrong through x-rays,M.R.I.s etc. The pain is STILL there! Any suggestions? Morphine was very effective at first.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if the pain is main concern then it need to be managed with NSAID only instead of narcotic moreover the underlying cause of pain is matter of concern and it need to be managed accordingly, or try to bear the pain as hard as you could hope this information helps.
