I do think pain care here is not very comprehensive and the general attitude seems to be learn to live with it. Not a philosophy I share. I also think that there is a very conservative attitude re medication. Anyway good luck. Hope you can find what are looking for.

Hi there. Thanks for your reply. I haven't gone down the pain clinic line yet. I work in the healthcare field so will probably try a pain specialist first (doctor). The pain clinic for some of my patients has been either a really great or a not so great experience. Did you see a neurologist in Auckland first?
