Gary,

With all the talk about the Fentanyl patch on here lately, I went back and tried to find a thread that included PharmGirl. I think it goes back well over a year. I remember learning from her and the other posters, and NOT Dan's doctors or pharmacists, that there is some precautions people should take with the patch when it is hot or they are running fevers. Gary, do you remember the details around that. It was an eye opener for me and I thought it would be good to re-post it.
