i had a medtronic pump with morphine for 4 years, then was switched to dilaudid for a few months when my doctor recommended i consider prialt. we studied the literature and decided to try it. within 10 days i had occasional total amnesia. we buried my mother in law on a tuesday and on the following sunday i asked my wife how her mother was getting along.
i had 2 auto accidents and was totally unaware what, where, how or when. i discontinued the prialt and went back to dilaudid and my doctor said the symptoms would dissapate but after a year it has not. i had to quit work and after trying to find another expnlanation. please advise!
I developed occasional total amnesia after being on prialt for just a week?

I would "Run", not walk~ back to the Doctor, take your wife with so she can also have some input with the doctor to get you on a different medication, or a different one< that's unacceptable to have such memory loss, amnesia, etc. and it's not normal. Who knows what the long term effect with this drug would be? I suggest a trip to the doctor ASAP~ Good Luck, I hope you can resolve this~
