Thank you so much. Aintsobad I am glad you can joke now. I am glad you found something to work. I was suggested methadone by one pain but then it got ruled out. I am going to ask on Mon with my new doc. The lidocaine patch and the lidocaine infusion made me worse pain wise. You know my mom is on ativan and not for pain but for sleep/anxiety it really helps. I have huge sleep issues of course like many here. I am on klonopin though and my psych said you can't mix the two but she was wrong on other but maybe someone knows? I am also on serequel which I find useless in all aspects and is costly so am going to ask about that to.
