How Long Will I Live When On Fentynal Patch With RSD?

I have RSD and had a small bowel obstruction fixed and then they wrapped my intestines in plastic after. They said they even had to rebuild the muscle covering and removed some of the intestine. I had tortion and strictures and narrowing. I want to know how lond I can expect to live now. I am on a fentynal patch also and feel terrible all the time!
