Question by flagguttie: Chronic Pain?
I have Chronic Pain going on 11 years. I have been on many pain medications over the years, had several pain doctors perform several injections in several places to try and freeze or kill the nerves. I have recently had a neuro stimulator installed and it seems to have some relief and I am still on medication. I would like to get off the medication and I know the withdrawls will be hell. What’s the best way to handle these symptons and avoid having major issues while coming off?
I am on MS-Contin 15mg – 2 per day, and Loratab 10/500 – 4 per day
