Pain relief when you have cirrhosis?

I discussed this at my last liver clinic appointment, and was told they would be ok with me having something like Tramadol (or the Butrans patches I had several years ago, but gave up because they made me so sleepy) - but my GPSs flatly refuse to prescribe any stronger pain relief for me.

excessive blood loss

I'm currently on 600mg pregabalin and 15mg/ph butrans patches 30mg dihydrocodeine as well as paracetamol n cbd oil as well as smoking cannabis. Has anyone got any coping mechanisms that may work?

24 yrs and still struggling!

(I've been attempting to gain weight for 3 years now 😂) I'm currently under the pain clinic who have put me on 30mg/ph butrans patches, 600mg of pregabalin, dyhdrocodine & anti-sickness tablet's, all have their own set of horrible side effects!

Butrans patches

I then was tried on BuTrans, 5mcg to start. Great the pains went away. :) They did take a while for me to feel less of the side effects. But I got a dreadful headache just above my eyebrows, and I was so very sick.

Co-codamol

I have been taken off the Butrans pain patches due to the bad reactions to them. I have since been tried on 2 Amitriptyline at night, also Pregabalin twice a day. And just recently started as well, on Co-codamol, initially 1 of the 8/500mg's to take twice a day.

Oh my goodness

So I was on lots of painkillers including butrans patches, naproxen and paracetamol and amitryptiline. About 8 weeks ago my Dr started me on 30mg duloxetine it has helped with my anxiety but not helped a great deal with my fibromyalgia.

Feeling emotional

I am 1pmg butrans patch this was given to me for a separate shoulder problem, I am being weaned off them because this doesn't help fibro pain, so the bilateral shoulder pain is quite bad at the moment.

A cautionary tale

He put me on the butrans patch and when I developed an allergy to the adhesive he started me on buprenorphine. All was good. My pain was managed well from 2012 to last month when I quit cold turkey because I was at the top of the dosage and it wasn’t working.

Latest Appointment at Rheumatology

Best thing is a big ✔️ to continue with BuTrans and top up co-codamol at times of pain flares. I’m not a junkie, and get no buzz from them, but need them, please! With the recent move to crack down on pain meds I’m hoping to get a green light from GPs.

Butrans?

HI Im familiar with bupenorphine and find it to work well for pain, with no side effects of being high or weird feeling. I seen that theres a very low weekly patch of it which has me interested. (although no drs seem to be able to prescribe anything) :( anyone use it?

Arthritis pain not relieved by Pred.

I have had to give in and put on a BuTrans patch as well as cocodamol, for pain relief. Most of my pain from PMR has gone but the Pred is not hitting the OA as I expected it would. Any advice would be so helpful, I’m on 15 mg Pred and have been for 4 weeks.

Lidocaine patches???

Really hoping that someone can give me a positive review as I’m scared my pain level will return to the highs that it was before I was prescribed Butrans patches. Thanks. 💖

Relapse

Hurting like mad everywhere and waiting for new butrans patch 10. It’s due today. Can barely cope with pain right now. Will probably lose hair - swell up and put in on weight. I guessed this was coming as I have been feeling worse.
