This article mostly describes how naloxone can be used with an opuate, such as morphine, to treat those who are addicted. There is a difference between addiction and dependence on a drug, such as an opiate. I take an extended-release formulation of synthetic morphine for RSD/CRPS. I actually HATE having to take any medication; however, since being diagnosed with CRPS, I have had to take opiates just to lower the pain of this most wicked syndrome. I have actually stopped my medications several times in an attempt to be medication-free. But, I cannot tolerate the pain, which feels like I am being burned alive. When off opiates, I am in be, curled up like a bug, and crying. Please tell me what sort of life this is? I have always had to return to my prescribed medication to lessen the pain enough to live a semi-normal life. I lost my ability to work. I miss almost all social functions. Everything I do (such as taking a shower) takes a lot more time than it used to before I was diagnosed with CRPS. Please tell me how naloxone can help significantly to reduce severe pain in patients who suffer from chronic severe pain. This sort of stuff irritates and angers me because I am not addicted to the opiates I don't even want to take. Because some people abuse whatever in their lives, groups and institutions believe all should suffer the consequences. I used to work in the health care field and knew the "textbook version" of RSD, but now I know the horror of having to live with it. AGAIN, PLEASE TELL ME HOW THIS STUDY MIGHT HELP THE MILLIONS WHO TRULY SUFFER FROM CHRONIC SEVERE PAIN. Thank you for reading this (which was written while in bed).
