Has anyone ever experienced this? If I stay still for more than 30 mins, and ESPECIALLY after sleeping, I get severe joint pain. So bad, that when I wake up, I'm in tears with pain. I don't know if this is related.

Please share your experiences with me. I'm not sure if this is from the long term IV of MS Contin.

Thanks!!
 
You're going to have to seek medical attention, we aren't qualified to deal with this kind of thing.

How long have you been shooting morphine ER? How do you filter it? What's your dose? How big of a syringe do you use?
 
Why are you taking the opiate?

Is it for joint pain or bone pain or some type of disease?

If so the condition is probably spreading. Or you may have developed an auto immune disease like RA.

Is it only on one side of your body? Both sides? only on upper 1/2?

Lower 1/2?

It could be anything. It could be gout.

Go see your dr. Before you go write down all your symptoms.

Answer these questions. Also list things that make it better or worst.

Some times the body will deposite junk in your joints. It could be fillers from the IVing collecting over time.

We can no way know.

In the morning call your dr. Pain is a signal that something is wrong.
 
I'm closing this on second thought. Speculation really isn't allowed.

I would hate for someone to post something that gives him a false since of security when it could be something major.

But it could be nothing. I hope it's nothing big.

Pm me if you have further question.
