Re: [QUAD-L] morphine pump

If morphine works, I'd consider the pump. I'd try the morphine by patch first or orally. But, that is me. I'm not real fond of having stuff installed that "might" cause other problems. I actually do pretty well with hydrocodone and valium. Hell, I had seizure this afternoon. Maybe, deep down, I like the pain.   john   In a message dated 6/5/2006 6:55:32 PM Eastern Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I am taking MS Contin, 50mg, 3x a day. It’s not working as well. It’s ok during the day, but in the evenings my back really hurts. It has helped my arms a lot though. But now my doc suggested the Morphine Pump. Anyone else use it? How well do you like it? I worry it will have problems in the future.  How bad or risky is the operation? Thanks, Greg
