Allergy to morphine02/24/2009 |
It seems that every time I take a medication that has codeine in it, I get severe pain in between my chest. Nothing seems to relieve the pain once it starts except for time. Is there anything I can do to prevent this pain. It is necessary for me to take pain medication as I have cancer and am in a lot of pain?
You may want to ask your physician about other medications to try, such as oxycodone or fentanyl.
