chronic pain
"I have had Fibromyalgia for 25 years +-, degeneration of the cervical spine and bulge of several discs in my lower back and neck which each area needs surgery but I refuse to go through it.  I don't like being on buprenorphine because of the stigma behind it and having to go to the Dr. once a month
I was on tramadol for 19 years which work well most of the time but it was starting to impact my liver enzymes and with both parents dying of liver  cancer I wanting to reduce my risk.  After 2-3 months on Buprenorphine 8M twice daily my liver enzymes went from 4X the upper limit to 1.5X the upper limit and is now almost under the upper limit.  Using ultrasound my liver was 50% larger than it should be, now it is normal."
