Someone might know what is usually done to give pain relief after surgery when you are still wearing your patch. They usually have a drip thingy that you press the button when you need more pain relief. But I don't know how morphine (if that is what they usually give) will react with fentynal. We will see I suppose. I have a contact nuraber to talk to the anaesthetist so I might call him later on to see what he has to say about the post op meRAB. When the doctor increased the patch strength last time I got very nauseous. I cope alright with oxycodone but I'm not sure about morphine on top of the patch. Maybe the morphine in the drip will not react, making me sick but I would like to be sure that they don't give me something I don't cope with, though maybe it would be ok over a short term.
Anyway if someone has been through this I would like to here from them as I am a little nervous about it as well as the surgery I suppose.
Something else that I have and others have been noticing lately that I have been shaking quite a lot but I don't really want any adjustments in my meRAB just now as I am only 3 weeks away from surgery. I would rather just battle through until afterwarRAB. I may be able to reduce my meRAB if things go well fingers crossed. I am not holding my breath though as I believe in one day at a time. I really don't know what others think when they see my hanRAB shaking, they probably think I am taking to much medicine though I have actually been holding off the oxycodone as I think I will need what I have for when I come home from hospital. My GP won't give me endone so I can only get a script from the specialist.
Thanks for your help. Allan
