Hello There,
Our friend is going through a lot of pain due to pressure of the tumor sitting on her rectum. She is on Oxycodon (sp?), Oxycodeine and morphine but the side effects is inducing vomiting. She constantly sits on a heating pad and takes long baths to ease the pain but it is only temporary. Is anyone out there that has experienced the same pain and have tried something else besides pain killers? She is losing a lot of weight because of the constant vomiting and we are very concerned!!!!
