>>4176291 (pb)For personal information about withdrawal, I was prescribed for pain, dr took me from morphine to oxy to fentanyl patch without informing me of dangers. Fentanyl patches are evil.

You get more medicine when your body temp rises. Had a plumbing problem on a hot day, ran around trying to fix and clean up water. Didn't even consider I was wearing it. It makes you forget to breathe. You literally have to think about breathing.

Withdrawal has had to be gradual and so far lasted two years, putting a bandaide under part of the patch, advancing 1/4 per week with a pause for a month. It makes all the muscles in your body feel like you are having a hard shiver, all tense all over. All the time. It's called the "willies" in some circles. Can't sleep, can't eat, runs, feel like you have a bad flu. Hands curl upwards with the fingers balled and the wrists flexed backwards and impossible to relax. Also, you can't lay still. Flipping back and forth, moving constantly as you try to relax to sleep. It is torture. Just FYI.
