Keep in mind, I started treatment around 2010. I switched to natural alternatives and Tramadol due to some med side effects and family pressure.
I also have been seeing a therapist who centers on chronic pain and addiction.
I am worries if I go back on the medication, my wife may leave me. Then I am done at that point. Nothing left.

My doctor agreed today over the phone to get me back on Nucynta so we are going to try and make the switch today. I hope it doesn't impact my family and work.
