Hi, I just wanted to advise be careful with using "medication" from friends. They have been prescribed purposely for your friend for their personal problems. These patches are not normally prescribed easily... plus there a type.of opioid so they can be addictive. Please be careful and speak to a specialised health care professional before using these...

Hi I understand fully but she has the same diagnosis as me but her doctor is a lot more understanding than mine and my mum also has the same diagnosis as me and is also on them!

Yep I'm on patches now, just trying it out to start with. Just to give me a break from the morphine.Are you under pain management team?

This has almost become a last resort now.
