used this once when I was between doctors due to insurance issues--the best three days I've had in about 30 years, with steady, constant pain relief, ability to engage in normal activities with energy and enthusiasm, and able to go to sleep at desired time

This has been a wonder drug for me controlling my pain quite effectively though Ive had to have a recent increase in dosage and I only change the patch every three days. But I MUST keep it on during that time. It fell off once and the withdrawal was absolutely horrific! In Arizona that can be an issue.

Yes it works very well. If it wasnt for the patch I would not be able to do everyday tasks. You have to be careful though and put them on at the same time of the day. Also you have to remember that getting overheated like a hot bath extreme temperatures outside etc. will make the patch release medication faster. I do have some side effects which are not being able to remember things sleepiness.
