My regular doctor said yesterday that she wants me to go to the pain management clinic in Bismarck since my pain is out of control and, as a NPC, she is out of ideas. My hydrocodone work for back pain, but not as well as we would like. My nerve pain is completely out of control. Sadly the pain clinic doesn't have any openings until late February! I have to suffer for about 3 more months before we can get anything under control!! I'm going to see if I can get in contact with my neurosurgeon's nurse and see if she's got any thoughts. I wish we didn't have to deal with chronic pain! I'm off to hit the books. Maybe I can find a natural supplement to hold me over. Any thoughts?
