I have been prescribed 10-325 Norco one three times a day for 18 years and out of the blue my doctor referred me to a pain management clinic, which prescribed fentanyl 15mcg patch to change every three days! Does not help my pain at all! I have been very sick and almost had to go to hospital due to severe nausea and upset stomach with leg cramps and am extremely weak!! Have been taking Dramamine and Imodium to help! I have degenerative disc disease, two spinal surgeries, fibromyalgia, neuropothy of feet, osteoporosis, etc. Have never requested a prescription early in 18 years!!! I am at a total loss!!! Would appreciate any suggestions as what to do!! I am 65years old and have been totally disabled 18years! Worked 30 years before injury!!! Live in Miss. Have been widowed 11 years! Not on Medicaid!!! Truly need replies! Please!!! Blessings

Fentanyl is a drug commonly used to cut illicit drugs. It is also responsible for more overdoses than any other opioid. It's probably causing your nausea. I would suggest you talk to your doctor about switching to oxycodone ir, they have no "fillers" such as asprin or acetaminophen like many other drugs. In 2013 I stacked three discs in my lower back and the doctor prescribed me 4 hydrocodone 10 mg a day. They did not help the pain. Then he prescribed 4 5 mg of oxycodone ir and they made an incredible difference. I also used lidoderm patches worn at night time to help me sleep. This is just my personal experience. I hope it helps (my prescription was called Roxicodone. I think it may have been a generic).
