Rob had thrush from day three and was on Nystatin throughout his treatment.It came in the form of a liquid and a dropper,which was quite easy to use.

Robs pain med schedule was

Fentanyl,Morpine,Soluble Paracetamol,Voltarol.Different types of meds are required for different types of pain surprisingly,so one size does not fit all.Large doses of fentanyl or morphine DO NOT necessarily eliminate all pain types,particularly nerve pain like trigeminal neuralgia.
