My husband has been on the Fentanyl patch for a couple of years. He had a very bad accident and other drugs were not helping. Began on the lowest dose and gradually increased to 100mcg. We are now decreasing the dose and will hope to cease use of the patch within the next three or four months. He has peripheral neuropahy and now has the Medtronic spinal cord stimulator. The has helped tremendously. My question is for many months he remains extremely cold 24 hours, daily, regardless of summer or winter. His physical checkups, blood and urine, etc., remain excellent. I am wondering if the decrease in the mcg of the patch could be causing him to remain extremely cold 24 hrs. daily. I don t remember this being such a problem when we were increasing the mcg. Thank you.
