Close Chronic Pain
Had saliva glands removed 7 years ago, which resulted in neuropathic pain. Have gone from Co codamol, ibuprofen, diclofenac, naproxen, 4 hour tramadol, oxycontin. Taken off oxycontin to prolonged release tramadol. Already on Max dose amitriptyline and Pregabalin. Doc has now said I need behavioural therapy as long term opioids are bad!
Treatments
- Lyrica Working / Worked
- Good for some of my pain such as ear ache
- Naproxen Working / Worked
- Worked till my body got used to it
- Nerve Blocks Not Working
- stellate ganlion block paravertabral cervical injections
- Neurontin Somewhat Helpful
- moved on to Lyrica as only need to take it twice a day instead of 4 times a day on Gabapentin.
- Oxycodone Somewhat Helpful
- Put me in a state so I didn't care about the pain. Bit difficult to live a normal life on it tho'.
