Hi Susan
I'm sorry to read that your husband feels like his stomach is burning when he takes his oral morphine. That must be very uncomfortable. How is he now?
If he's still experiencing this, then I'd recommend that you call his team today to discuss this with them. His team would want to know if he's experiencing any new or worsening symptoms.
If you can't get in touch with his team then please phone NHS111 today to ask for advice.
Let me know how you get on.
