Hydromorph Contin 6mg

I have been on Hydromorph Contin 6mg for 2yrs for spinal stenosis and disc problems and the doctor gradually has increased the dosage (I take 2 pills in the am and 2 in the pm). The problem is that I have a sensitivity to codeine and morphine and eventually I cannot take the meds anymore. Is there other painkillers I can take that are not derived from codeine or morphine? I have also been on fentnyl patches but am allergic to the glue used on the patch.

Did the Fentanyl help? Was the problem with it just caused by the allergy to the glue?

If so, there is another option, available, it also comes in the form of a lollipop called Actiq.

Here's the link to more details on it, so you can decide if it's something you'd like to discuss with your doctor:

Have you ever tried nabilone? This is in capsule form, but it is medicinal cannabis. I take 1mg at night and .50 daily. I have tried every opioid, they don't work. This med works even on my restless legs. I do not feel high. You don't normally get addicted to this med. There is no hangover effect, it seems to work on the whole body. I have been on nabilone for two years now and have had no problem. It has nothing to do with opioids. All you can do is ask your doctor. Hope this may help.
