   Need Advice on Pain Medication's for my Pop (Pain Management board)

3rd June 2008
Steve it was only about 2 weeks on 3 aday an then they cut back to 2 aday another 5 days.He is one who will try his best not to take medicine an that is why I know he is in severe pain.I don't know if I put in other post or not but they gave him the Endocet 5mg 3 aday.His insurance will only pay for generics.But he did say his mind is clear again now but the pain isn't letting up.I'm sure the meds are helping somewhat but my whole family including me are trying to play doctor an figure out what is going on.Also Friday the doc. said he had mild fever an is still running it.He is prone to getting urinary tract infections an it seems like he almost keeps one.But this pain is really severe in lower back an sometimes his arms an shoulders.And the cramps he is getting in his legs.I'm afraid he is going to cramp up walking an fall.He is also losing weight but they have had him on differant antibotics that make him sick an not want to eat.June 9th will be his bone scan an I pray nothing bad shows up but when some-one has had bladder cancer you can't help but think the worst but I'm trying to think positive since it did seem to start when he jumped up out of bed real fast that nite.They are going to do MRI also at some point.They said first thing was to deal with his pain but it's not happening fast enough for Pop or any of us.Well sorry I got carried away again giving life story.Check back later!
