For Pain "I was driving to the airport this morning when intense pain creeped up on my blank stomach area. It kept getting worse to the point I had to pull over, the next thing I knew, I was in a fetal position next to a phone booth. Somehow, I was able to gather strength and drive a couple blocks to the nearest hospital. I checked in, trying to remain calm, but I remember having to go to the bathroom, and then there I collapsed at once again in a fetal position because of indescribable pain. They finally called my name, and I sat in the back room waiting and waiting, moaning and moaning, the people at my cot were pleading with doctors to help me. I think the doctors thought I was faking for drugs. I remember throwing up, the pain was so intense. It felt like I was in another realm, the pain was so relentless. I had never made sounds like that before. After what I thought was an eternity, a doctor’s assistant shot me 75 mg of Demerol. The bliss was unbelievable, I'll never forget how it took the pain away miraculously, I thought."

For Pain "This medicine was given to me at the hospital after my car accident. It worked great, except it made me nauseated, and I vomited after a large dose. Works really well."

For Pain "I was given this for pain associated with Crohn's disease and for a migraine during a hospital stay. It works great for pain, lasting longer than Dilaudid. The only downside is both times it made me throw up even though I was given anti-nausea medication 30 minutes beforehand."
