No that does not mean the end. I went on Fentanyal a little over 2 years ago, fought the dosage, now at 125 I would have been on morphine but thru surgeries found Morphine morphs me into a miserable mean person and I would get violently I'll. I too thought that was giving in to the end and I am still here. Only difference is I function so much better when not constantly fighting the pain. I sleep more, but function better. It was Cypress Cynthia who told me that my body couldn't fight the cancer when it was constantly fighting pain. So I tried it and over 2 years have had to up the dose.
Hope you feel better and that it makes the pain more tolerable I would have never imagined how bad the pain could get, especially in lower spine, tail bone, hips and thighs, wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
Hugs,
Carol

I understand how you feel. I think when we hear the word morphine, we go to the worst possible place. I like what Carol said, your body can't fight this disease if you are in pain. I know it is difficult but try to see the theraputic aspects of the drug rather than the scary side of it. I am wishing you peace and to be free of pain. Love Surf

So sorry your pain has reared its ugly head to the point of you needing morphine, and I hope it does its job. I hope what the Amazing Carol has experienced can be of help to you.
Hugs,
