It is unconscionable that your Dad is still in pain. He should be on the 100 Fentanyl patch (although they may have to work him up thru from 25, 50 & 75 patches first) plus oxycodone for breakthru pain. Yeah, it may knock him out but pain does not promote healing and they can adjust his doses. I was lucky my doctors were aggressive in pain control. Seriously, something is wrong if he's in pain.
