Pain relief yet to see gp again for ongoing pain

Posted , 3 users are following.

So I have had a very complex history of pain and different ongoing health problems since 2013 from neurogenic bladder, IBS, depression, kidney problems and severe pain in my bones and joints, the GP prescribed me tramadol for a while which never helped, and then put me on co-codamol 30/500mg every 4/6 hours which is now not working either, I’m having a range of tests for different conditions, i have a gp appointment coming up but just wondering if anyone else has had severe pain and what they got prescribed and what worked in their experience. 

Also under a nephrologist for kidney problems that I’m currently passing blood clots the size of kidney stones for the past 16 months which surgery hasn’t helped!! 

Thanks in advance

    Josh, I feel for you but I am afraid there won’t be many people on this forum that can help you.  Your illnesses are too complex.  Please refer to your doctor asap.

    I wish you all the best and hope you find relief from your pain soon. 💐💐
