also, i haven't found a narcotic that helps any (only tried 3 or so though) so my doc won't prescribe me any others, saying that they won't work either. is the same true for opides? (if one doesn't work, none of the others will either)
Ms contin does work for me on a daily basis, it doesnt help my flares, rheumo wont give me anything other than percocet for my flares, of which doesnt work most of the time unless i take 1 1/2.
Ms contin is the first med that even touched my pain, but now that ive been on it a little over a year im finding that my body is getting used to it.
I too do not have a pain tolerance but my body easily gets used to meds, no matter what they are, esp. the ones that work, then the med quits working. It is so irritating.
