constipation, drug induced
"I've had mixed results with this.  Been on 180mg of Oxy IR and 75mcg Fentanyl for YEARS. When my doc increased my Fentanyl to every 48 hours, all my plumbing STOPPED.  I NEVER had any problems, ever!  I fought with the constipation, not going for 6 weeks+ sometimes.  I don't know what hurts worse...?  Anyway, the Relistor works here and there.  I don't have insurance and at $75 a 12mg injection, I can't afford not to go!!! I just gave myself a 12mg shot yesterday, and another today.  24 hrs apart.  Nothing.  I haven't gone in 3 weeks now.  This is not good.  The laxative route does nothing as well.  I'm frustrated... Any suggestions?"
