How Many Mg Does Dilaudid Come In

Updated

I've been on dilaudid 4mgs for 9 years for damaged pancreas and now I have hip problems that are very painful, and the pain medication is not controlling the pain.. It's maddening....hopeless.

Hello, Joy! How are you? I am sorry that you're in so much pain.

It goes as high as 32mgs, so there are higher doses you can try.

The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation.

What other medications have you tried?

Since the year 2000 I was prescribed 180 60mg at a time of morphine extended release and morphine 15mg extended release three times a day each +184 5mg oxycodone instant release tablets per day. The reason for this is because I jackknifed a forklift caring heavy skids of motor oil, it felt to the right and I fell off the left, got caught up in the seat belt and turned my feet completely backwards, turned my L4 and L5 completely around and twisted my spinal cord and was treated for over a year for a dislocated spine, because when they took x-rays the eldest looked the same on the front and back and they were perfectly aligned backwards. I had surgery a year later after having a dye analysis called a Milligram. the surgery took 23 hours. I was paralyzed for seven months and in a wheelchair for five more. I used a walker for 2 1/2 years and a cane for eight more. Started riding a bicycle stationary at first and then a mountain bike to strengthen my legs to carry my upper torso. Now I have a 48% curvature of the Spine, lymphatic edema in my legs, neuropathy in my feet, legs, hips and back. I have 28 screws and 2 14 inch plates made of stainless steel holding me together. I went off of morphine and now I am on dilaudid and oxycodone. At one time I was on oxycontin 40mg twice a day and oxycodone 5mg six today. They didn't even phase it. Does anyone know of any other medications that may help an 18 year old injury with extreme running pain every day?
