I know about the pain, it's atrocious. I was undiagnosed for almost 3 years and didn't get any pain relief. Believe me when I tell you, I *know*!

Hang in there anyway despite that horrible feeling, but let me tell you, if your pain isn't controlled well enough, then you need to tell your physician. You need to be feeling better instead of worse. Your pain needs to be under control, so you can live with it and so it's somewhat tolerable.

Nerve pain is the hardest to deal with. They cannot make it go away totally, but they need to try as best they can and that is why you need to give the doctors some feedback on the subject. If the pain is still too bad to cope with, you need to tell someone so they know where you are and so they can adjust your medication.
