Another consultant I saw at a specialist hospital last week didn't think I would even make it through the entire infusion because of side effects but Im trying to ignore that.

If you can't stand these types of products, then I'm not sure why they want to continue this?
There's a lot more that can be done for nerve pain (non-opioid treatment), but that's up to your doctors and not for us to start to discuss.
