[|Human|] hi, I was diagnosed 15 years ago with vasculitis and mononeuritis. My majior symptom is severe pain in both legs and arms. I was sent home from clevland clinic on 1800mg of morphine a day. Over the years Drs have passed me around worried about giving me so much meds. I listened to one DR who convinced me to try suboxone . It did not work due to the severe pain I tried suicide. Now I cannot get anybody to treat my pain. What can I do. I am at the end of my rope!
[|AI|]  Hi, Over time, people who have been on opioids for long develop tolerance to the analgesic effects of opioids. Probably this is why you are still in pain in spite of being on such a high dose of opioids. Since such a high dose of opioids can cause respiratory failure, doctors obviously feel uncomfortable in prescribing it. In my opinion, you should try alternative methods of pain relief like nerve blocks, acupuncture etc. Even if these bring only some relief, you will at least be in a better position than now. Best wishes.
