Oh Boy, Sharon.... I'm so sorry for the suffering you're having to endure!!! It's just not fair. I've been suffering like this forever, too. I am very fortunate, however, to live where the pain specialist actually knows about the pain of abdominal adhesions. He actually gives me adequate pain coverage. I'm on Duragesic 75mg patches and Actiq 600 micrograms ever 4-6 hours as needed for

"break-through" pain. Sure wish you had a decent doc near you!! Rebecca
