Chronic Pain
"I&#039;ve been on this joke for medication for 3 months now because the doctor refused to change me from it while I was going through diagnostic procedures and finally nerve ablation. It&#039;s never helped my pain. It&#039;s given me severe headaches, made me irritable, I&#039;ve gained 30lbs on it, had swelling in my legs and arms and also really has affected my moods and my patience level. I&#039;ve begged for a change or an increase but was told he wanted me to stay where I was until after the ablation. Well had that 2 weeks ago, since then I&#039;ve had major increases in pain, a headache that hasn&#039;t stopped since the procedure, hip pain (That wasn&#039;t there before the procedure). I&#039;m on a low dose for this, I don&#039;t think I need a break through pain thru med."
