So he wants me to try the Exalgo since the Dilaudid had been working some for the pain. It is so new the pharmacy did not have any they had to order it. So I can not start it till Monday. It is very expensive but if it works can I really put a price on relief. I would rather be in less pain than eat but we will see. I hope it works. The phamplet the doc gave me said that it was newley being used in the US this year but that it had been used in Europe since 2006 under the name Jurnista. If anybody has any experience with this med please let me know. Thanks! ( I posted on medication forum to.)
