Experiences with

Oramorph

oramorph allergy? I'm on low dose oramorph but I notice my breathing is terrible when I'm on it - to the extent I'm gasping and feeling like I'm dying after a few paces. I wonder if I might be allergic to the preservatives in it - does anyone else have a reaction to oramorph.

I have recently been prescribed Oramorph to deal with back pain, but have read on an alternative site that opiates "feed" the tumour. Does anyone know anything about this statement please? Jenny

I’m very tired and going to take some Oramorph and paracetamol, and hope to sleep longer than 3 hours tonight

Doc gave oramorph. Hadn’t got rid of it.

Doc has given oramorph painkiller. Had it day 4 and now days 8.9. Not sure if it is chemo related, waiting for consultant to get in touch

I have just started on Oxycodone to replace Oramorph... 5 mg fast relief . Suffering from Bladder Camcer. Problem is that I then need a laxative because both of the above make me constipated. Oxycodone appears not to react well with Dulcosoft laxative. Anyone any suggestions ?

I have been given Oramorph for pain relief. Now, my legs have started aching too. It feels muscular, but I don't really know. Had anyone else experienced this as cancer related pain, and was a pain killer the only solution? Jenny

Has anyone been put on oramorph to help with coughing. If so did it work. I’m a bit wary of starting it

After a hip op I was given oramorph now I've stopped it I can't stop crying, the night sweats nd constipation is bad. I feel so low can anyone help.

I now have a large bottle of Oramorph on standby in case it happens again. It may or may not be related but three days later I ended up with really bad cystitis and was at our local walk in centre on Saturday who said I had an infection (such cloudy wee!)

I had to ring 111 on 13th and a Dr gave me oramorph which does take the edge off the pain but my GP is refusing to prescribe it. I was wondering if anyone else has gone through this and if so what have you found that works.

Which I did as I had appointment already on Tuesday… after a lengthy discussion about cauda equina from the gp she did agree to prescribe me oramorph.. so glad as when I’m bad I don’t want my hubby or ambulance to go to hospital.. this s a last resort and she could see from my notes I don’t drink it

I have been prescribed Oramorph for this. Also, due to the fact that the Omeprazole will affect my bones, I am taking Adcal and Alendronic Acid, as I already have osteoporosis. Had anybody else taken these without unpleasant side effects?

I'm on Opioid pill's, Fentanyl patch 12mcg and 5 ml Oramorph a day for stomach problems and the Oramorph for the spine pain and I have had an upper right Lobectomy for lung cancer and am in remission just now. Just a wreck really.....physically but in my head I have stuck at 28 !

Not coping with the pain today has anyone got any coping technics they use oramorph not touching it xx

I am on so many medications I feel like a zombie (patches and oramorph included). I am vegan and can’t eat bread anymore as it bloats me and fatty/fried food makes me sick and have a severe flare ups after eating them.

Chemo and immunotherapy today they have not heard from liver specialist regard thing on liver but have decided to take me off cocodamol for pain and put me on oramorph anyone had this I’m as usal scared x

I'm already on: paracetamol, naproxen, high dosage of gabapentin, oramorph and morphine tablets...but still can't function as a human being. Also any suggestions of other conditions that meet these sort of symptoms- I don't want to self diagnose just interested in people's experiences.

I had another week in hospital and then sent home with oramorph to take if I had anymore pain. I've needed regular blood tests to check my liver function and he had said he hoped to have me back in in May to remove my gall bladder so long as my liver was back working normally.
