I have told my provider, the pain i suff is nothing short of NOT HUMAN!
Yet the can gets kicked down the road.
I suffer from AS, spinal stenosis, kidney cancer and i get Gabapentin and epidural steroids, that minimally works.
Why are we allowed to suffer is the question.

We are paying the price for all the people taking or snorting pain meds to get a buzz and addicted, while the governments,state and federal make it hard on people in real pain.

I know exactly what you mean about the can being kicked down the road, My situation has been going on for years (twenty years of Tramadol which does very little,) However, the light may be at the end of the tunnel. I have a nurse from the pain management dept who has prescribed Lyrica and it appears to be helping.But I still have a cynical altitude. Take care - this is not a pleasant journey.
