Sorry to hear that she has not gotten any relief after five years. Yes, twenty percent in one fell swoop is a lot. What medication is she getting? Morphine was a no go for me, so the trial ultimately used hydromorphone, which gave me good relief. I had the pump turned UP by twenty percent last year. Left me very woozy and disoriented. Took a while to adjust.
Hey, did they do a dye test to confirm that the med was getting into the intrathecal space? Please keep us up to date.
