That is great Tayla. I don't understand why it should take a year.

It only took 2 months for me.

This must be because our doctors are not afraid to raise our doses until we get the relief we should have, or change the med over to one that is stronger.
I belong to a forum where people are still in pain because their docs won't give them what they need. That is an important question to ask before ever getting a pump. Will they give increases until you reach good pain mgmt.
Well, why in the world would they put the pump in us if they won't give
us the dose we need for pain relief ??? But from what I read on that forum, sadly they do. I'd be kicking and screaming if I went through that surgery and I couldn't get relief because the doc is afraid to raise my dose or change to a stronger med.
It is good news that both of us got relief so quickly.
