from complications from diabetes. I'm on a bunch of oral pain killers including very large doses of Neurontin. About a year ago, they added a Fentanyl patch (it's like being on a morphine drip). You change the patch every three days. The patch, in combination with the oral pain killers, have made a difference. I'm not a doctor, so I can't say this would work for you, but it's probably worth discussing the patch with your doctor. Hang in there Pam ... Fred
