As i mentioned before I am on a PCA machine which gives me a constant IV drip of morphine. It is about the size of a walkman. Is this only in the San Francisco area? I also have Contin MS but the docs would rather adjust me to the PCA, which IS working. How about a book or some other basic literature I can get a hold of that will give me the ABC's of morphine use. How about suggestions for the dry mouth, lessened appetite, etc. BTW both my oncologist and my regular doctor recommend pot for the waves of nausea. Thanks. -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!10!475.0!Sherman.Peabody Internet: Sherman.Peabody@p0.f475.n10.z1.fidonet.org
