I was hospitalized because of my accident i had involving my cruise i was on. I leaned over a railing and fell 2 floors and broke my pelvis, and some bones on my face… I ‘m trying to get better so i’m slleeping a lot lately. When i landed after my fall, my friend who was like holy shit, he flipped me over so i didn’t choke on my ow n blood.i was given lots of morphine when i was in the hospital and all i remember was waking up at the hospital after being in there for 3 days and going holy shit why am i here? Yesterday was the worst at home because i had withdrawals from the morphine, and the vicodin didn’t really do shit for pain i have in my whole right side…
I fell 2 floors

OUCH. I’m sorry, that sucks a whole lot.
Have you talked to doctors about
1)alternative pain management (ie, physical therapy? Or if you’re too weak for anything but opiates, asking if you can try something other than vicodin to see if it helps out more? Taking something that works completely just until you heal will make you less dependant than something that’s not quite doing the trick—you’ll end up needing it for longer because you’ll be too in pain to do helpful things like strengthening your muscles and moving normally.)
and
2)asking about a way to come down off the morphine?
