I’m a 21 year old male that has a severe form of Neurofibromatosis that is rapidly increasing that causes tumors to form deep in my body all over that causes pain. I’m loosing all function of my arm and leg due to it being nerve pain and damage. I was an athlete but now I am bed ridden. The docs want to put in an intrathecal pump in me to help with the horrible pain and because I’m on very high doses of oxycontin and oxcycodonne. I’m scared to have it in because I’m a skinny guy and I’m wondering if it will even help much or what kind of pain meds are the best to be straight in blood for anyone with horrible nerve pain? I pushing to do this hopeing i can get back to a somewhat normal life and wondering if it hlps others with neuro pain?
