Guest guest Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 hello, i went to see the new pain doctor today and he gave me a prescription for fentanyl patch (25 mg). he told me he wants me off the oxycontin that i am currently taking because he thinks that the oxy might be what is aggravating my body. it feels like all my nerve endings are on fire right now. my body is just throbbing. has anyone had any experience with the fentanyl patches and if they controlled their pain. would truly appreciate some input here. thanks, marsha stenosis and spondylothesis surgery 5/22/06 laminectomy and fusion with hardware L3-L4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
