Congratulations Thomas, I am so glad to hear that you finally found something that works for your pain.

Also catmom is right, do not split your time-relase meds, or they will release al at once.

I was on oral morphine for almost 9 months, am now using the duragesic patch. I do think that morphine worked much better. I have only been on patch for 6 days, I called my Dr this morning and left a message, about switchng me back.

Anyways good luck TLT
