Good Morning I Have Been Prescribed Transdermal Patch 10 Microgram/hour

good morning I have been prescribed transdermal Patch 10 microgram/hour Buprenorphine for approx. 12 weeks now for arthritis pain in both knees, base of my back and hands. I have had operations on my knees but with no effect so after trying several pain killers the doctor prescribed the above. At first it helped with the pain but now I find I am suffering more seizures than normal and I keep getting a hot tingling feeling in my face and body, also I find myself bursting into tears all the time and feeling scared and very emotional can you advise if I should stop taking the patches and what other course can I take for the pain.
