Is there any med that relieves mild but constant pain?
Tomorrow I am scheduled to drive sixty miles into the city to visit the pain management chap that the ortho Doctors I saw four years ago use. At that time, they offered me 3 or 4 opioid type medicines to help with the peroneal nerve pain, none of which did any good. I understand the one I am to see tomorrow does not prescribe opioids at all. I mention that only as information, as I Never used any of the previously supplied drugs for more than two or three days.
My Question is, Are new and effective drugs available today that were not available 4 years ago? Is it worth it to make the drive?

Just now seeing your reply: Naltrexone at 50 mg to 100 mg can be used for someone dealing with alcohol abuse. LOW DOSE Naltrexone at 4.5 mg has showed excellent results in reducing inflammation and reducing pain. It also helps for healing.

Coincidentally, I called AgelessRx today and asked why my wife was approved but everything stopped after they requested a photo and drivers license picture. Two months have passed. The gentleman who answered spotted the problem in less than a minute. I'm anxious to get her started on what likely will be .5 mg. I was rejected, understandably.
I recently switched insurance coverage...prior plan paid for LDN and new plan does not...so I pay out of pocket...it is well worth the $30 per month!
I'm dealing with Ageless Rx and not sure, but they may be charging more than the going price. Do you use a private physician for Rxs?
