I'm glad the scans were all normal, but so sorry her pain is not being controlled. You just have to hold your ground as far as the ativan goes - if you know that's the one that's really important, make sure they know it too. I can understand them wanting to reset her meds if she was taking way too much, but it's in the Patient Charter - every patient has the right to adequate pain relief. I hope they can help her, and you, quickly.

Try to stay calm and hopeful. At least where she is they are doing something and she is being monitored.

Good luck, you're doing an amazing job and she is lucky to have your love and support. Let us know how you both get on.

Bram.
