Stanford University GI Pelvic Doctor wants me to start Relistor a MU ANTAGONIST OPIOID and continue taking the high doses of Narcotic Opioids I now take.

I'm 75 With Chronic Pain. I Know Having A Cat Would Make Me Much Happier, But I Don't Have Anyone To Rely On If I Need Occasional Help.

A MyChronicPainTeam Member asked a question 💭
Rochester, NY

I want to make sure that my cat will always have what they need. I've always had cats in my life, and the occasional dog.
