Morphine Sulphate w/d

I was wondering if you withdraw from MS?  The reason I am asking is I have been in pain management for years and have had OXYcotin, Hydrocodone and various others and I do not see myself jumping up out of bed "having" to take my MS where while on the others it seems I have to take them from preventing me from getting mini withdrawals.  I hope this makes sense

I am in pain management and I do not abuse them.  I only take two 30 mg MS a day and do not do anymore than that.  I was only curious about the WD becasue when I was on 8 hydros a day....when I woke up in the morning my brain said "take a pain pill" and I do not feel that with the MS

Yes you would have wds. flu like symptoms and your body would tell your brain that your pain level is much higher than the reality of where it would be if it were used to addressing the pain naturally.  It takes time from narcotic pain meds, opiates, for your body to adjust to dealing with pain. 90 days at least.  I thought my pain could NEVER be handled by aleve and advil (like cus words when I was using opiates) But they take the edge off evey bit as well as hydro vics etc.

I have been on MS for two months.  What I am saying is once you are on the others like Hydro you get a mental effect to "I have to have my Hydros" and I do not get that from the MS or have not as of yet.

How long have you been taking MS ?  I'm certain there is wds from it. Unless you have been on it a short time. To know what to expect from wds the folks here ask how long and what dose you are on.
