Advice on pain relief
Posted , 5 users are following.
I have been off work now for 8 weeks with Sciatica and am waiting for a MRI before being referred to Pain Management. I have worked my way through the usual drugs Tramadol, Co codamol, Gabapentin,Naproxen etc and none have helped at all. The GP has now agreed to trying a 25mg Morphin based patch. It has only been 2 days but don't feel as if this is helping. Do I need to allow more time or should I be getting some relief by now? I also suffer with depression and the lack of sleep and constant pain is effecting this.
