Hi, I’m just wondering whether anyone could help me in some advice with morphine.my dad started taking liquid morphine and tablets about a 2weeks ago now and has been in bed for the last 7 days sleeping constantly and has gone from being able to get up and sit downstairs,chat on the phone and walk about the house to now having no energy to even speak. His appetite has completely gone and has had nothing to eat for a week too. Has anyone else experienced this as it seems too much a coincidence to be anything else x
