I honestly dont know. Drs keep pushing Cymbalta and Pregabalin at me. Also i tried Gabapentin but im sure i have nerve damage so get little relief and im afraid of the side effects.
For me the worst part of all this is t g e battery pack situation.
It caused severe pain from day one and the pain from removal is almost unbearable. Due its location i have great difficulty eating.
When im more healed im going to try a more holistic approach. My local Memorial hospital know me well and are suggesting Integrative Medicine, which is more in line with my desired approach.
I think when one has a overly sensitized nervous system recovery, if possible, is lengthy and arduous.
Its so sad, due Medical error so many of us end up in worse pain than before.
I hope you can find relief also. I try to stay Positive but on days with severe pain, its hard. Best wishes to us all.
