Thanks for the reply Tonia, the last one was exactly what I was looking for. I see my doc again this week and will be discussing a few of the suggestions from that site with her. At this point I'm willing to try just about anything. Imagine my surprise when I read at one point the recommendation (from another site) that anti-convulsants were sometimes prescribed for pain relief and I'm already taking them-maybe they will work for this too! I'll just have to try adding a little more to my daily regimine and see...
Wish me luck.

Thanks again.
