You'll be fine. Don''t let them change what you already know. If it works

for you, stick with it. If not, that's another story. I used MSContin for at

least 5 years, which is really the same thing, but the base is Morphine instead

on Codeine. I only stopped because I had a " hissy fit " about taking drugs

all the time. So my pain Dr. suggested that I try the Duragesic patch instead.

It sorta does the same thing, but a lot of EDS folks have problems with skin

breakdown, it not sticking and it not lasting the 3 days., etc.

I have some problems with my skin, but over the years, I've built up a

little extra supply & if I see I'm having a skin problem, I take it off early &

change the place. It's a very personal call, so don't let anyone else's

experience who may be very opinionated, change how you feel, if you feel good

with it.

I have absolutely no symptoms from it. It doesn't effect me at all. To me,

it's like using nothing, but I've used it for years.

Good luck on you upcoming procedures, you'll be in my thoughts.
