My pain is abdominal and low-mid back. I have pancreatic cancer.Should have mentioned, I do not feel like"me"on morphine, I become too drowsy. We are reserving this for nearer to the end.

Are you level 4? If so, I'd definitely talk to a Physio therapist for this. Have you tried massage therapy?Have you also talked with your Oncologist about this and better pain management? What about Morphine? I know all of these are addictive but......You need serious pain management. Good luck and God bless.

Well probably as well as Actiq when it gets bad. Morphine is actually weaker then anything you are taking now. trigger point injections work but not too long which basically does same. There are meds that will work for you that are for where your cancer pain is that is not a narcotic too. God bless and good luck.
