[QUOTE="cott97, post: 1532631, member: 70448"] Many thanks. I have managed for 6 months without oral morphine but still take long acting morphine every 12 hours and was successfully reducing the amount. The pain pathway is not a pleasant one and knowing you are addicted is quite something to get your head round however I am at a dose level which is considered acceptable. It's so easy to continually increase pain meds as they do lose their effectiveness hence the need to always take the lowest dose possible and when it improves to reduce dose. My BS seems to have gone up around 3 mmol which seems in line with your experience. I am on holiday at moment so can take it easy and do what I need to reduce the pain. It always feels better to know you're not alone as pain can be very isolating. [/QUOTE]
