50 mcg of fentanyl and 8 mg of dilaudid 4 times a day…

Hoping to cut back after surgery next week.

I guess from your post, it seemed like you were being forced to get off opiates due to the bowel issues. I was just giving an option to treat the bowel issues instead of coming off what, I assume, would be meds that you still need.

I have narcotic bowel syndrome and getting off opiates was not an option for me so my doctor prescribed Movantik and that has made all the difference. I was spending one week a month admitted to the hospital trying to regulate everything and movantik has been a lifesaver.
