Dalaudid For Mets To The Bone Pain

Updated

Dalaudid is the only medication I have found that helps relieve the pain in my bones from the cancer, and it helps me live a somewhat normal life so I can still get up and around. I am very thankful for it and have had no side effects at all.

I also take 4mg Dilaudid for breakthrough pain (along with a fentanyl patch) due to compressed nerves and a brain that's too big for my skull. At age 28, after 2 years of suffering, Dilaudid also is the only med that truly releives my suffering and helps me live a more normal life. It was so difficult to get at my age thanks to the people out there who abuse it. I'm thankful that I have it now, though, because it's helping me get my life back.

Hello Phyllis, and Melanie! How are you both doing? I am so very glad that you've found a medication that works for you.

Melanie, have you experienced any side effects from it?

The FDA lists them as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, sedation, and dry mouth.

Ref: Dilaudid Information

This medication also carries the risk of being habit forming.

Unfortunately for me, when I was given Dilaudid in the hospital for pain, it caused me to experience a horrible headache, it was awful.
