Default I'm so sorry. . .

Lily, I'm so sorry that you are dealing with such severe pain. I can relate somewhat as my pain meds only can do so much and on certain days and nights (especially nights) I have had pain I consider, "severe". I have Peripheral Neuropathy in my lower legs and feet and have dealt with the pain for about seven years now. I see a pain specialist every month and take methadone (best for neuropathic pain) 4x a day and percocet for breakthrough pain. Even with that, there is pain 24 x 7.

Do you have a pain specialist? What does your doctor say? Are there any pain support groups in your area?

I'm sure those here could be more helpful with more information from you. (If you've already shared it and I missed it, I apologize.)

Take care,
Nancy-H
