What I was trying to tell him about the pain and I don't know why he would just know. I was having muscle tenderness. It was throbbing on and off which it does a lot and then sometimes I would get sharp nerve pain through the same area. But I am on a pain regimen from pain management but sometimes the gabapentin and morphine does nothing for that pain. I am also on oxycodone. I have degenerative disc disease also.
