It might help if you could find a doc who would prescribe a long-acting opiate. I've had great luck with OpanaER and I take it with Lyrica. With those two meds, it helps alot! I certainly can't say I'm pain FREE, but I'm more comfortable than I have been in years.

I hope you can find some relief! Sounds like you're miserable! God bless and please take care. Hugs, Lee
