morphine for ocd

Two months ago, I had a patient who was in severe pain and I had to give an IV morphine push through his heplock. After fixing the syringe to the heplock port and pushing the morphine, the gloves torn (they were tight) and I noticed that there was a dry drop of blood on his heplock and my hand touched that DRY drop. I don't know how long was the drop there. I then got an urgent call for a critical patient that lasted 10 minutes and didn't clean my hand until the end of the call.

As you have stated,there is no cure for OCD,if there was there would be alot of happy people who would be able to live happy--normal lives.There are good medications--CBT--Exposure therapy & the OCD workbook.The combination of all these treatments can make OCD easier to deal with.

I was recently perscribed morphine for my fibromyalgia and spurs on my spine. My question is does the morphine make you really nauseated and throw up. The last few days the side effects have slowed down, but I would still like to hear some suggestions from people in the forum.

s care but my dog is having bladder stones and he is very much unconfortable all night I have to take him downstairs to pee and all the vet has told me is to wait for the results of urine test to beggin treatment meanwhile he gave him Rimadyl for the Hip pain and also some Phenobarbitol for anxiety, but he still cries all the time, I am desperate !

thank you my good firend,i'm trying to let OCD go first,if i couldn't forget it at 6mos,so finally test for me is 6mos.i believe cdc's 6mos window period is conclusive,although almost docs recommended 3mos window period.i know we are negative,just OCD.

My doctor has me on Fiorinal C1/2 for migraines, and put me on Morphine for severe migraines and severe pain. I have often had to go to the hospital for the migraines, and they give me a shot of what I thought was Morphine in the butt, and after about 1/2 hr it was gone. This last experience, the Morphine did not work, and I ended up taking a bunch of Fiorinal instead. When I spoke to my local hospital, they said they dont give Morphine for migraines but Demerol?

What are the best medications for OCD, and has anyone had success with prozac for OCD?

Today I decided to wean off of morphine and try Ultram for a few weeks. My PM is willing to work with me, so that is a very good thing. She said hydrocodone isn't good because of the Tylenol, like you said, and I am sure she would be willing to help me try low-dose oxycontin or something else if this doesn't work. Thanks for the suggestion. It is probably wishful thinking that I will find the pain level has subsided by now.

i am on zoloft 75mg and have been breaking out in a rash since i started taking it in april but am just now realizing it could be the zoloft. does anyone have any experiance with this or can recommend another medicine that may work for my ocd and anxiety. my ocd is the scary thoughts and it was all caused after a major surgery i went through. it is getting better but i still have some issues.

He said I tested positive for morphine and negative for xanax. I take 1-2 ,25mg xanax a day-prescribed by him for anxiety. He referred me to pain management and that Dr prescribed me 15 mg Amrix and 50 mg Nucynta ER a day. He said the morphine is not from the Nucynta and that I must not be taking the Xanax or Nucynta that neither one of them showed up. I am not taking Morphine of any kind. I took a Xanax and a Nucynta 3 hours before this appointment.

t think that it is prescribed as much for OCD as the SSRIs but it does seem to work for me. I have not gained a bunch of weight and it doesn't kill a person's sex drive like the others do. Maybe worth a discussion with your prescribing doctor.

I was curious to know if anyone here is resistant to medication for OCD. He is on 300mg of Anafranil since December and started Luvox at the end of December and doctor has been increasing the luvox, so he is now on 300mg of luvox as of two days ago. This is the strange part.....

People that have been on opiates for a long time can ingest a dose that would kill someone who has never used the drug. Then if they stop for a while, their tolerance goes down. Morphine is a terrible trip, with nausea and discomfort and constipation. Not something to desire for recreation.

I was one opiates for a very long time for illness and got hooked . Tihe only way for my was to get into the hospital and go through what is call detox . It took five days and I came out clean . He needs to want to do this for himself . Dont let the Drugs He is one hurt you. You might want to ask him if he would like you to go into the emergency room with him and get help. Even if you dont have insurance they have to help you. Tell the truth and get help . I will pray for you now!

I was also told to eat turkey for L Tryptophan. Do you think this is an appropiate treatment for ocd? I had taken an SSRI called Prozac before but I was not able to tolerate it as they used to cause some pressure in my head so my doctor had told me to stop taking the pills. Does Cognitive Behavioral Therapy help ?

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?

Morphine must be okay for the liver because that's what they used when I was in the ICU following my liver transplant. Be VERY careful with morphine. I was on it for 7 days and went wacky with hallucinations of all kinds.

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?

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.

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?

iam on anti depressents floxetine & amytriptlijne then tramadol & 80 mg of morphine a day do you think i would be ok to get a job

ve heard and read that its perhaps a step up from morphine sulfate. but not sure. all i can say is that the morphine works well for me. I also took effexor 150mgs twice daily and it wasn't cutting my depression at all, so my pain management moved me to zoloft 200mgs daily (100mgs twice daily) and this is working for me. But i would definetly speak to your pain management doc. The morphine makes you sleepy also, so be careful at first if u chose that path. Best of luck!

The CBT is absolutely key to helping him and down the road, because I think he is way too young for medication, there are medications out there that help treat OCD very well. I have had OCD since I was a teenager. I went to college, got married, had children, and have a very successful job. So yes, with the right help he will turn out just fine. He is very lucky to have you and your wife as his parents.
