i never had any nasea from the patches and i was on 50 mg patches changed every 2 days yeah the pain didnt exist on the patches, but ill tell you something they are very addictive and when you stop taking them or you forget to change the patch you will feel like death. i was on that, oxycottin, vicoden lorecet, percocet ,hydocodone, ultram, and methadone for pain, i do not use reckreational drugs, alot of people including the pharmasist gave me looks because meth is used for heroin addicts, but the patches were definetly worse than any of the other narcotics, be careful and dont forget to change your patch. i wish you the best of luck and a happy holiday...
