I am using the fentanyl 50 patch for degen disc disease and herniated discs along with shots. This has only recently been adressed and officially diagnosed due to lack of insurance. On the same note, I am just now able to address and seek therapy and proper medication for chronic depression, PTSD, restless leg, and a new diagnosis that I can't recall...something about socio or social something. Basically I seem to 'perform' roles and have no clear cut 'me'.

Sorry so lengthy. The thing I am confused about is that with the fentanyl patch, I put a new one on yesterday and it has me itching pretty bad and I have had some significant mood issues today also. I know sometimes the patch can cause that. My PTSD is not medicated yet. How can I tell what is causing what. It seems like today was different so I would assume its the patch but I'm really just guessing. Anybody have a clue?

This really needs to be addressed by the doctor who put you on the patch. If you are on multiple meds, you could be experiencing an interaction somewhere along the line. There is no way for us to tell you what may be causing what.
Please see your doctor to sort out your meds.
