Index Number: 14925 [This is from the Spinal Injury Conference] > Can you explain how that works a little more. Seriously, >I wanna know because I always associated morphine with the >narcotic effects I experienced after surgery. I have a friend up in New York that had a morphine implant and it changed his life around. He was in such pain that he was willing to have is spinal cord cut and give up walking. From what I understand he does not become addicted and he is pain free. Before he got the morphine implant he always had an ashen color to his face. When he feels pain he pushes a place on his abdomen I believe and it injects a specified dose. This was a very low level break that he had on his tail bone so I don't know how well it works with higher level injuries. I hope that this helped.
