Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 1,844 | I was shocked at the fentanyl comment as well. It's much stronger then morphine on a per mg basis and in a lot of cases stronger then most street heroin. It's not a drug to play with as it caused several deaths a few years ago when given to heroin addicts as heroin...to put it in perspective. I've been on it for over a year now and finally starting to dial down from it but for me it worked when nothing else did (hydro, oxy, morphine, you name it they had me on it). I agree with the others when they say it's the gold standard.
Jim...you're just a different guy...the man of steel! That's why it didn't work for you. I love ya big guy.
