At the moment I am taking 70mg of zomorph twice a day and oramorph for break through pain
I am really really worried about taking all this morphine on a daily basis, and can't help but wonder if God forbid, I was ever in an accident and rushed to hospital and they gave me morphine, would I have built up a tolerance to it? Silly thing to worry about I know
Hope you are all as pain free as possible today
Yes you will have a tolerance to it but they would just give you more as needed and it is generally injected so it would have a greater effect to you.
If you need the med you need the med, I have been on Opiates now for over twenty years and we will have to possibly get used to a higher dose.
Like you I worry about the drug, when I went into hospital for an operation for stones they gave me a hefty whack and it was like buns to an elephant as they became concerned to increase the medication to a higher level.
With me I have strong worry when I get older and need Opiates for pain I will be drinking it in a beer mug.
I talked about this to my old GP and was told not to worry.
One thing I was told is they revert to non Opiate medications with the opiate and that pushes up the pain control. I do that now when needed. Suprizing one that goes well is very easy to get over the counter. Sometimes you may also need an anti-inflammatory as well. They mix well on GP recommendation

I had a foot operation ..bones...done under local anaesthetic and with blood supply clamped off, so I was awake whole time. Unfortunately, the pressure machine failed and the second half of op was with feeling. I couldn't be bothered to fuss, there's much worse nerve pain than that to cope with. Had you also thought that although you might have built up a tolerance to drugs, you will certainly have a tolerance to pain. And there are many forms of analgesia that can be used in hospital care, so please don't worry.
One of the best things you can do is to use a detox/cleanse system when you're done taking them... Clean out ur liver... Even something as simple as drinking lots of water with fresh lemon will help detox the harmful chemicals... 
Another TN attack. No wonder they call it the sucide disease.
