Sent to Health Experts January 01, 2006 8:10 p.m.

I stopped taking morphine in the middle of Novemebr and still feel like I 'm still going through withdrawals. It is now 01/01/2006 and was wondering how lond can you go through wothdrawals for? My pain management doctor prescribed me to take oxycottin 5 mg to take 2 at a time and every four hours. My doctor also put me on a fentanyl patch 50 mg that I change every two days. My pain is been through the roof. I have been averaging on a scale from 1 to10 most of the time being at 8 and increasing as the day goes on. I have hot and cold chills. I have major fatigue, my whole body just aches all over, want to sleep non stop, and can't urinate easily, my appettitite is gone, Is there anything I can do to get better. How long can someone go through withdrawals for? Is there anything I can do to get over the withdrawals and get to feeling better? Could I be feeling this way due to the new medication I'm taking?

I have been seeing a pain management doctor. That is how I get the prescription from. I also recently got a cold sore on my cornor of my mouth. Can I get a cold sore from being sick? I think it was a flu I have been trying to fight . I have been having stomache pain and passing blood clots. I'm on the orthroevera patch and it concerns me as well. Is there anything that I can do to start feeling better?

Thank you Tammy
