Avatar n tn Morphine will not damage his kidneys, there's no symptom regarding kidneys in morphine side effects list. This pain in chest seems to be angina pectoris - from narrowed coronary vessels. High white cells are sign of inflammation, which is not necessary an infection, and may be located anywhere in the body, it may even be a part of a heart disease itself. This antibiotic thing sounds to be judged quickly; it's weird.
Avatar n tn t work properly less than %17. Am I allergic to Morphine or can Morphine have that affect given to someone experiencing a gall bladder attack? I heard that sometimes during the HIDA scan the technicians will use morphine instead of CCK so that is what spurred my curiosity.
4760166 tn?1398357313 but it had no other effects positive or negative...and why I guess my Dr said to mark as allergy....but I did develop an allergy to another pain med which eludes me at the moment.....I will pop back on when I recall the name.....OXYCOTIN!! that's it....lol....that one I was itchy all over....but what is weird is a month or so b4 I had a different surgery and it worked fine no side effects...next time using it I was going nuts scratching....ugh.
Avatar f tn At some point I was given through my IV a mixture of Benadryl and morphine. All of a sudden I had a feeling my throat was closing and had a hard time taking breaths. Since I was able to get some words out, it was apparent I was getting O2. The doctor checked my throat for swelling and didn't find any. I was hooked-up to a heart monitor, and the machine went nuts. I have never had this happen. What could have been the cause?
Avatar m tn what would happen if someone took (about) 20 ml of morphine sulfate(concentrated), which is 20 mg per ml? I got some m.s. from someone, and never asked how much was "safe", though, i do realize taking it at all is unsafe unless directed by a doctor. i took this amount yesterday, within a 2 hr period. lastnight i vomitted a lot, was too scared to go to the hospital (another stupid move i know) if i feel good, should i still go to the hospital?
Avatar f tn 1. An adverse effect/Allergy to the morphine or 2. The morphine should have NOT been used for the particular pain you were having when you presented to the ER. Morphine is NOT the best choice for all pain. Oh yes, the CT contrast, yuk!! Yes, had to drink this myself and have given it to numerous patients; it is awful. Unfortunately, it is needed for better views of the abdomen. How are you feeling now?
3112530 tn?1434032033 I have got to understand why after about 8 hours, the 'itches' kick in. It is extremely annoying. I take Benedil for the 'itches' and it seems to stop them sometimes. Can anyone tell me what causes the 'itches' and what is the best effect to counteract this? My morphine is only 15mg and I try t take it every 12 hours but when the "itches" kick in, (usually about 8 hours later), I take another and it seems to stop.
Avatar f tn 3 weeks ago I had sinus surgery and reacted to the adhesive on thermometer stuck on forehead and morphine. Within 48 hours had hives and breathing problems, stopped antibiotic but reaction continued. Allergist said it was Prednisone taper (40 mg in 4 days) the fifth day I ballooned esp face and knee. Now I am allergic to tapes and this week had a first time immediate systemic allergic reaction to my maintenance dose allergy shots. Something has my body hyper reactive ....
Avatar n tn My husband has been a diabetic since age 11. He has a known allergy to tape. Currently he wears an insulin pump and a continuous glucose monitor. Even though we use skin prep, he still at times rashes with the tegaderm(we have tried several brands).He puts hydrocortisone on his skin, but i am thinking tht possibly there is another type of cream to use on the rash. Anyone hve any ideas?
Avatar f tn m 40 weeks and 3 days, my cervix is not opened and the doctors think because I have not been getting sleep cause of contraction pain...I want to know if getting morphine is okay for baby?? Any did effects? And will my labor start after i wake up??
Avatar f tn Your symptoms remind me of what I experienced when taking morphine for pain after a surgery for a bowel blockage. Are you taking any narcotic pain medications? Most narcotic drugs cause me to itch badly. The allergic reaction is strong enough that I recovered from bypass surgery using Advil.
Avatar n tn I got as high as 75 mcg patch of Fentanyl every 3 days and then I developed some kind of allergy. The Pain Dr. says the allergy is to the adhesive, not the fentanyl. I am now down to 37 mcg every 2 days because the patches itch like crazy. I wake up in the morning and my patches are scratched off(even withTagederm) and there is blood on my sheets. My Dr. suggested spraying Benadryl but there has been no difference.
Avatar n tn I have had 1 c section with my first 12 yrs ago, and i was very sick afterwards, i was in a wheelchair for 2 days, couldn't stop vomiting (allergy to the morphine) and was so painfully sore. With my 2nd, i had a vaginal birth, and it hurt like hell and i screamed the hospital down, but afterwards i felt great, was able to walk around and hold my baby. With this pregnancy they have given me the choice of how i want to give birth and hands down i'm choosing to go vaginal again.
Avatar n tn Not that I am aware of, especially for surgical pain. If there really were a medicine that was as effective as opiates for pain, opiates would be rarely used within the medical community due to the stigma attached to them. You could try a google search on, "surgery without opiates or opioids" or "surgery on those with an allergy to opioids" to see if anything interesting pops up.
Avatar f tn I had absolutely no problem with ACL surgery but sinus surgery I had allergic reactions to tapes, morphine in the hospital. Within two days i had hives and breathing problems so d/c the antibiotic, still continued having hives and breathing problems - allergist said it was a reaction to Prednisone. We did a VERY fast taper on Prednisone (40 mg -4 days) the fifth day I ballooned particularly the face and knee.
Avatar n tn Morphine is sometimes taken for migraine headaches and swelling of the face is a common symptom of a morphine allergy. Your face could swell as a reaction to a number of other medications if you were allergic to them as well. If you have taken any medication recently I would strongly suggest you go to the emergency department as you may be having an allergic reaction to a medication. In addition, you have posted a number of other symptoms in 2 other recent posts...
595027 tn?1238981301 I have gone from Vicodin to Norco to oxycontin to morphine at 30mg to fentanyl patch, back to morphine but at 60 mg and that is where I have remained to present time.

Avatar f tn With my 1st born I got an epidural and I was looking into different pain relief options for this pregnancy. Any of you got morphine instead of an epidural and how was your experience?
Avatar n tn Hi yes it is normal behavior for Morphine, when you first start it your on top of the world then comes irritation and depression and even nightmares for some. How much is he on? How long? and dose he want to quit?
525732 tn?1213046071 Well, first of all i know what i would tell your husband. Who cares what he wants or doesn't like. Look at the mess you are in. Sounds like you need to go and speak with a doctor and explain that you want to get off the morphine. Don't forget to tell him about this husband also who is obviously causing you alot of anxiety.
Avatar m tn I pretty much thought it had something to do with the morphine. Any advice? He needs it for his back. My view is morphine is probably better than any other of the narcotic analgesics because it is the most natural and has been around for centuries. I certainly would not want him on oxycontin or fentanyl. Is Opana ER any better? Need advice from doctor preferably or someone who has an idea what they are talking about regarding this matter.
654183 tn?1225309036 My husband is addicted to Morphine. I have never done any type of drug and I really don't know what to do to help. Every time I think I know what is going on I find out something else he has lied about. At first it was just taking the pills, then it was crushing the pills. Now I'm finding needles and spoons everywhere. He claims that he gets the pills down to liquid form and puts them in the needle and squirts it in his mouth. I just don't believe him anymore.
Avatar m tn I am going to go cold turkey on tuesday from 100mg morphine, been on them about 6 to 8 weeks. feeling sick when I dont take them and not able to take off time for detox and types for detox?
