I hate to say but in my opinion your doctor doesn't believe you are truly in pain. The 10 - 325 percocet is for those with a toothache or headache, and the Butran's patch will probably last 5 - 6 days before completely ending its usefullness. I have had a ruptured disk in my lower back for 10 years, I take the evidence (MRIs) with me, and these doctors STILL look at me like I'm a drug peddler ... Just a bunch of judgemental overpaid people that will make all of us who are really in pain jump through hoops before putting us on the right dosage that gives us the relief we need. Sorry yo be the bearer o bad news.View Thread
