Carole Hennum	I was wondering if there have been any studies about dreams encountered while taking morphine. I have been experiencing live-action dreams with animation. Am I going nuts or is this normal?

angie	I get wired and can’t sleep.?? Then when I do all my dreams are so real, like once someone scratch my face and it felt so real, makes me jumpy at night. I can only take it in morning, giving me energy and not hungry. Hmm.

OR Nurse	Sleep is definitely different when you are taking opioids like morphine. Dreams can be vivid, absent, terrifying, or just wierd. I often have to calm patients down when they wake up on a morphine drip and reassure them that they are OK.

Tim	For me no dreams at all, I sleep like the dead on morphine. I have been told that dreams are an important part of restful sleep, and I have to say besides sleeping at night, I feel like I could sleep all day to on this drug. Too bad my L4-5 and L5-S1 discs are crap, and the pain is intolerable. The MS Contin is the best I’ve found so far to give a little break from the chronic misery. I guess dreams are a think in my past.
