Thanks Paul! He's had the patch on just over 24 hours and the pain is not subsided much. Maybe from an 8 to a 7. If there isn't relief by Monday we will ask for a higher dose. He's at the beginning dose of 25 mic's.

Thank you for your thoughts on the tx being like kryptonite. It helps to have perspective from those that have been on this ride.

Merry Christmas to you! ☺
