Confused Still confused

Alan has a new PM Doc. He took him off vicodin and all other meds he was on. He then put him on Methadone, Lyrica, and if we can get wc to approve it, clonidine patches. So far - it is not an approved med. He then wants to put in a SCS.
I do realize that some things work better with some people than others, but from what I read here, people are having much better success with outpatient ketamine treatments or even HBOT than SCS. Although I'm not sure WC would approve HBOT in Ohio.
The more I read on treatments and options, it seems, I become more confused! I really think this Group is the best I have read though! Alan won't make a decision on treatments until I research them for him and make suggestions. Then he decides in favor of what I suggest. I am just so afraid of making the wrong choice.
