I’m apparently one of those that morphine does nothing alleviate pain. It makes me nauseated.

The ER staff was surprised as I was a long time ago when I had to use their services.

Anytime medications and allergies come up, I tell the quacks no morpgine.

Same thing with myself and my Family. My older Brother recently had an emergency surgery, he insisted on being removed from the pain meds (mostly morphine) and then recovered & healed more rapidly.

My Father lived some 40 years with excruciating back pain. In the 70's, his neurosurgeon suggested marijuana, once his opiate reactions were observed. In his final years, fentynl was prescribed by his VA Dr. and it worked well and did not cause the severe reactions of other opiates.

I have the same “allergy/reaction/ whatever” (the medicos can’t decide on what to call it). BUT, they just give me shot of some anti-nausea stuff and all is good. I’ve told numerous docs and nurses “I need a shot of that anti-nausea stuff before morphine” and every one, so far, have known exactly what I need. Shouldn’t be a problem. (I think it’s Compazine or Promethazine)

Doesn’t work on me either, just massive head rush and headache. Dilauded works best IV. Only 2 things drive me to the ER A-Fib and when pain has me puking my guts up and I can’t get it to stop and it pushes my BP up to high.

Don’t know where they get a high off the stuff, never had that happen or Script narcotics, had some bad reactions though.
