Hi well thats my 1st shift over after getting my Patch on Tuesday and to my surprise I am not tired or sore whereas when on my usual Cocodamol 30x500mg. Once home and a wee bite to eat and a coffee and I then popped some more pills then went to sleep for at least an hour .
So far this new Patch medication is working as its reducing my pain though not taking it away altogether .Sam

So pleased the patch is helping to reduce your pain, my patch doesn't rid me of pain either but I know when I've dropped my dose down my pain was worse so for me I think all I am going to get is pain reduction not it gone totally I really do wish it would go away though.
May your pain remain reduced with the patches & you are only on quite a low dose after all so it can be increased if necessary.
teddybear Hi after work today I think that I will need to make an appointment in order to see my doctor and increase the dose above the 10 mi that I am on at present as it does not seem to be strong enough. Sam.
superannie Hi after work today I find that I am in a wee bit pain I will see my doctor on Wednesday and ask if my Patch strength can be increased. Sam.
