Hey all,
My doc has me on the MS Contin 60 mg. every 12 hours. I started it a week ago. During this time I have enjoyed that the drug actually takes my pain level down to tolerable but I have been having an issue that I wonder if any of you have ever seen or know what it is. About an hour after I take the pill my face gets beet red. And then I start sweating from every pore in my face. Is this an allergic reaction? When it happens I do not feel sick or even over-heated. I can feel the heat and redness crawling into my face and then of course feel the pores opening and water beads coming out. Has anyone else had this happen to them? I really do not want to quit taking it as it helps with my pain but if this is a bad reaction then I don't want to risk my health. Other times my face gets really pale and clammy. Any opinions or experiences?
