[surgerysurge]

I have been on the morphine pump for surgery for 4 days. taking about a total of maybe 250 - 350 mg of morphine total.  i get 1 mg every 6 or 8 minutes i think. After I stop will I suffer withdraawls or can i taper with my pain meds at home? worried. thanks.

Will you answer Corey's question, I was going to ask the same thing, but if you are not an addict 4 days will not couse w/d I hope you get well fast

oh,,,and 4 days of morphine use because of a surgery is not a reason to taper when u get home..only making it more of a threat if u dont need the pain meds

[worried878]

no  4 days is not long enuf..unless it triggers u mentally as it sounds as tho u have had a problem before...dont let it do that..try not to have any pain meds at home if u do not need them..4 days is not enuf to hurt u but if u go into a using binge then it will be..be safe

i just got a really bad migrain flashing lights and stuff just took some motrin and went to bed good luck

It depends. Are you an addict? If you are a recovering addict in early recovery you could get withdrawals. What are you taking pain meds for at home?  I was on a morphine drip for surgery once when I was just a few weeks clean and I did get some wd symptoms. I am assuming that you might have some sort of addiction as you are on an addiction forum. Hope all goes well. Corey

no, you wont.  At all.  Good News.  You'll be totally fine.  NO WD's after 4 days of monitored use
