pain
"I have had pain from 2 ruptured discs and spondylolesthesis for the past 9 years.  I used to be very athletic (running, lifting weights, yoga, biking, etc.) and I had to give all of that up.  That would be have been ok if it had relieved the pain, but it didn't.  I've spent the last 9 years on Hydrocodone, Tramadol, Flexeril, and others.  I had given up on having any quality of life.  That was until I found Butrans.  I have been on it for about a month, and for the first time in as long as I can remember, my back does not hurt.  I am sleeping through the night.  I do not feel drugged out (like Vicodin) and have no side effects. Not one.  This medicine is a miracle."
