    I am a cancer survivor and just want to say i pray for a full recovery for ur Dad. He can ask for morphine or oxycontin which come in different strengths. A 30mg morphine is a good dose to start with. Also a pain patch known as Fentyl that u place on your body and change every 3 days is good. That way u don't have to pop pills all day ( he is probably taking enough already) and it releases a steady dose of medication...

      Pain is an every day part of my life. I was diagnosed in April 2009 with stage 2 breast cancer. Only had can in my left breast but I had a double mysectomy. Chemo and aggressive radiation. When I told the Dr's about the pain I was still having after 3 years they look at me like was crazy or stupid. Or a drug seeker. I called the Cancer Society, talked to a nurse and she told me about PMPS- post mysectomy pain syndro...

        I also had to stop due to the side affects. I already have PMPS, so adding more pain was just not something I could handle at the time. And don't dare ask for painless in La. Your addressed as a drug seeker or an addict.and the Dr has stated that he will not continue to see me if I don't take the meds.

          You may feel like a lost puzzle piece but, God has His hand on you and will place you exactly where you belong. I took everything very personable when I was going through cancer treatments. I felt vurnable and to be honest, I was scared. I would try to remember what God says about me. Because that is the real truth. Even when I didn't feel like it was the truth, I said it IS the truth.

          About Crowell

          Survivor
          Breast Cancer
          After Treatment

          Breast cancer survivor 3yrs now. I thought I would have surgery and treatments and get back to my life. Well this is my life. It never ends. Dr's, test, and meds. I'm really sick of it. Could use a friend that understand. And that I could also encourage. I want to laugh again. Have a job so I can pay my bills. I feel like a burden to everyone and for toppers my husband wants a divorce. I'm just looking for friendship from someone who knows what it is like. It's called survivor and it doesn't seem to end for me. I've always been a fighter and optimistic. But I'm beginning to wonder if I even know myself. Thanks for listing and God bless.
