Sounds like you wore out your dope. Ask your doctor for Methadone and change pain killers. I guess you can ask if your stomach damage is permanent. Don't even think about cold turkey. This is dangerous for quads.

My diagnosis is that long term morphine use has slowed my stomach activity causing terrible stomach pain. Worst is within an hour after lying down at night. I can be fine in the chair until I lie down or drink while lying down. Anything except morphine & water! I know that in approximately ½ hour after going to bed that my bladder is most active, the first 4 hours is HORRABLE PAIN. Pain might travel but is mostly in upper abdomen. Last month I went to hospital via 911 for dehydration an awful burping when pain was present. I searched in Google “morphine, stomach, and pain”. Might be something to this but I think something is going on.

Does anyone here have IBS or Gastritis? I was diagnosed with both because have had serious adominal pain the last 3 months. The GI doc went in and said stomach was doing fine, and of course said there was nothing wrong with stomach. But did sayI had IBS & Gastritis and that I would just kind of learn to deal with stomach pain that comes along with it. Of course he put me on a new med which seems to help. I just can't imagine that my stomach is going to hurt like this from now on. I just want to know if anyone has this and if this pain is forever. Sometimes I think these doc's just pawn the problem on another doc. Cause right away he said for me to go to pain mgmt doc. As if i want to be on darn pain meds that too me doesn't solve every problem. Veranda
