Default Appointment W/ New Pain Dr.

It's on Monday morning. Have no clue what to expect. I've been through trigger point injections, so called epidurals, Physical therapy, a whole slue of medications and can not take Anti inflamitories due to severe allergic reactions. Narcotics do work and I don't mind taking them I would just like to know if there is anything New or Old out there that might help. I've been off of my old pain reginmine now for two months. (long story) The pain has been so bad it's hard to function. The anti convulsants like neurontin don't help either. My options are a bit limited. Any ideas??? Thanks Lori T.

Hi
where do you have your pain? i have recently started with versitis patches
these are mainly for nerve pain.
many people seem to be getting good results from these. they seem to do best on backs sciatica ect. i have them for nerve pain in my head & face.
i am using them along with other meds.
might be worth asking your doc abought these.
hope they come up with something to help you.
jane
