How Can I Get Any Relief From My Pain When They Stop Giving Me Pain Medication Just Because Some Choose To Abuse It.
I have been on pain medication for many years as well as muscle relaxer and anxiety medication. I also take Latuda for my bipolar depression. The only thing that was taken away was the pain medication just because they think everyone is abusing it .I live in Texas where medical Marijuana is not legal. Because I don't have my pain meds I'm forced to smoke the Marijuana just for a little relief. What am suppose to do just suffer. Its just not right.
Dr. Is Lowering Fentanyl With No Replacement
I have not been able to fill out all my details yet because it is difficult to sit down plus my right hand has been in a cast. I have severe osteo and fibro and have had accidents. The worst damage is from the physical, mental, sexual abuse I suffered for a long time. Anyway, I was put on Fentanyl 12.4.14, and have been on it ever since. I now have Medicare and I am not able to get a pain pump. I am on other drugs for pain as well. The pain management doctor lowered my Fentanyl and… read more

Has Anyone Had Good Results From A Nerve Block Epidural Into The Neck?
I have had an MRI on my neck as I have had so much pain over the last year, this has shown mild scoliosis, problems with C4/5, C5/6 and C6/7. these are ranging from mild to moderate disc bar narrowing plus a few more bits and bobs that I am not sure about. I saw a senior physio at my local hospital a few weeks back who made me feel if I was making a bit of a fuss saying that we all have problems especially when we get to 58, she played it down and said she was reluctant to get an xray as most… read more

Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) Or Low Dose Dextromethorphan For Fibromyalgia
Does anyone have experience with Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) or Low Dose Dextromethorphan for Fibromyalgia?
I recently came across a book on my shelf, from 2016, on LDN. I cannot remember reading it but probably did if it is on the shelf. I would have brought it up with my PCP back then and he probably dismissed it.
I have also seen several YouTube videos on the topic but not very recent.

Nocturnal Leg And Feet Cramps Question
Hi there. Just curious, but what are some good ways to relieve nocturnal foot and leg cramps? I usually use a homeopathic remedy (Hyland's leg cramp tablets) and sometimes Biofreeze gel, but they sometimes don't work. I think the cramps may be related to me having diabetic neuropathy.
Gabapentin has worked well for me. Leg cramps are gone.
