Is there any med that relieves mild but constant pain?

Posted by cekkk @cekkk, Sep 19, 2024

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?

Naltrexone Isn't this for alcohol’ abuse? I do take Gabapentin 600mg 3 times a day. My Primary would only write 300mg twice a day, but neurosurgeon upped it to 600mg twice a day due to spinal injury. Finaly my pederast changed it to 600mg 3 times a day. I'm bad because sometimes or most times I forget or fall asleep before I take it. It helps most of the time but some days nothing helps but to sit down until pain goes away. I asked my Cardiologist about test he had me take that said high grade stenosis in and 50% stenosis in Tibal if that could be my problem causing legs to feel heavy after climbing steps and foot pain. I am having less of these pains with the meds but still somedays it does come on, can't tell when or why, sometime think weather cold, damp may bring it on but not sure

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'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?
