I have had over 20 abdominal surgical procedures out of which about 10 were sort of botched, I am a 49 yr. white male living in constant or intractable pain for over 20 yrs. and though I have had very hard time with keeping doctors just over the simple fact(that someone died of a overdose in the area and it being pushed through the media about how bad opioids are. Believe me when I tell you I know what it feels like to lose someone close to you, because of overdose(accidental but still lost)which was my wife. I have tried to take myself off these meds a few times only to wake up in a hospital room and then pumping me with morphine to try to get my kidneys to stop failing, each time I have had something go wrong when I did not have the opioids like I said renal failure and other physical problems all due to stopping of my meds. It always has me on a edge because I think if I lose another doctor I could not take it anymore, I have been cut off from my meds for all sort of whatever the doctors decided to cut me off and find a new dr. and I am running scared because I know what my body will do if I go without these meds opoites, just a year ago a dr. started cursing me and also physically to body beat me if I did not shut my mouth, but when I walked out on him I walked out of all my meds, and soon after the withdrawal started I did not want to be deviant but I had to because of the severe pain sickness from withdrawal. And my body blood pressure went up to a 260 over 160, that's right it doesn't seem like I would of survived they put me in the hospital checked my heart and then the cardiologist came in and told me it was not my heart that had my blood pressure so high it was due to the pain and it triggered my nervous system, hence the high blood pressure he said every time they gave me morphine and Ativan my blood pressure dropped. this should not be we should have the meds, without provocation. any Ideals Greg Horn Leave a Reply. |
