Hi everyone!

Switched to MSContin from OxyContin and had REALLY REALLY REALLY bad reaction.

Ended up in the hospital and then in bed for 3 days.

Here is what the text book says:

Morphine Sulfate Oral Tablet SR 60 mg- SIDE EFFECTS

May cause constipation, lightheadedness, dizziness, drowsiness, stomach

upset, nausea, and flushing the first few days as your body adjusts to the

medication. If these symptoms persist or become bothersome, inform your

doctor. Notify

your doctor if you develop: irregular heartbeat, anxiety, tremors, seizures.

In the unlikely event you have an allergic reaction to this drug, seek

immediate medical attention.

Symptoms of an allergic reaction include: rash, itching, swelling, dizziness,

trouble breathing. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your

doctor or pharmacist.

Par the course.... I got um all!

Poison mostly out of my system but nothing back inside yet! What an ordeal!

Ever felt like you are a shell with nut'n inside? Sort of like taking a

capsule, emptying out the medicine inside and putting the shells back

together!

That is what I fell like now.

I really don't have the strength to back track through 300+ emails! I just

cannot sit at the computer long enough.

Which is why I was wondering if I missed anything important ...

conference/post conference activities/important stuff about anyone's health?

A nutshell

would be fine.

Debbi

NOW I know why I couldn't get you out of my head after we talked (for @ 80

hours!) when this had happened. Apparantly that wasn't the end, it was the

beginning. I'm guessing you continued to try to call the Dr.'s office, even

though it seemed like he wasn't around (though I would love to be convinced of

that), like I said, every 1/2 hour, if you had to. SOMEONE had to be on call!

We both knew you had to stop it, but I really thought, when you seemed to be a

bit better after the Benedryl, you'd be OK. BUT, I just couldn't stop

thinking about you. I must be a witch like my Grandma was! But you are 3,000

miles

away, or else I'd have been there in no time. It just didn't feel right.

Well I guess you didn't wait (good idea) & though you must have gone through a

scary & miserable time, sounds like you're on the mend now. Well, at least

now you know what NOT to take. I feel so bad, I wish I could have done more,

but, darn those 3,000 miles.

And it led to this! Ughhhh!

As far as the last couple of days, " a certain few people " pretty much

continued being silly/creative/in serious planning/ etc., for " assorted " trouble

to

get into in Buffalo. Is that a nutshell?

Oh, forget it. I have to hear your voice.

conference/post conference activities/important stuff about anyone's

health? A nutshell would be fine.

Depends on how you define important. I was personally dodging a lot

of slings, arrows, stones and less than veiled threats from what

looks to be a rapidly growing conspiracy to taunt, torment, shame,

and in whatever fashion they can conjure or connive, humiliate

SOMEONE at the conference.

That's OK .

It helped to have that talk anyway.

I did get a hold of him right after we hung up and of coarse he had me watch

myself and call him back in 2 hours. I did and that is what lead to the ER.

What a mess.

He was great about it all. Boy when my body does not like something it sure

tells me in no uncertain terms!

Debbi

Really got to rest now.
