They said maybe it was because I have such a low tolerance to meds anyway. I am allergic to Codene and Demerol also. I itch horribly all over. They literally have to hold me down and keep my hands to my side. It's bad. My oldest son is allergic to it also. His nose itches and that's all.
I have that as an allergy. I don't want to have to go through that again. It was terrible.
I bet. And it would only get worse the more you are exposed, which is why I tell people to list it in their allergy records.
Demerol does nothing for me. Thankfully, the only severe pain I've ever dealt with is the headaches I had for a couple years and the brain surgery that followed. I no longer have to take pain meds outside of Ibuprofen a couple times a month.
I read about your childbirth experience. OUCH!

God bless the man who invented PCA pumps. I had a Demerol pump after my 2nd and 3rd c-sections. (I was in mag recovery after my 1st c-section, so they kept me pretty heavily sedated.)
Actually, Morphine does NOT like me. WooooooooWeeeeeee makes me sick. Yucky!!!!! I don't even remember if I felt the pain during a Csection gone bad......(They gave me an epidural and it hit an "air-pocket" and it was NOT dead. I felt them cutting me.....ooooowwwwwwiiiiieeeeeeeee!) Anyway, they gave me morphine and ooooooo boy did I ever get sick. Had to strap me on the bed and turn me on my side in case I threw up.)
Morphine=bad memories!!!!!! Now Stadol and Nubain together worked pretty good. I didn't feel ANYTHING!!!! That was some good stuff. Only thing....I say about 4 of everyone. It appeared to me that there were about 100 people in my room when only there was actually 25 or so. I saw lots of stuff but didn't feel anything.
CC1, sorry to hijack your thread, but you get to feeling better, dude!!!!!! We are praying for you, buddy. In Jesus Name!!!
Heheeeeeeee! Sister Coonskinner got stoned and LIKED IT!
