@janrose123 Have sympathy with this as I had nerve ablation left side and right side of L2,3,4. First last year in Oct and this year Feb.
The effect is wearing off and I need another ablation done at the hospital pain clinic. I’m seeing my family doctor soon to renew the morphine which I only take 2 daily. But it means I take Tylenol during the day with moderate success.
I will send this link about another pain relief medication used for elderly. I am 77 and would be grateful for help as my quality of life is absolutely awful.

@msmcecelia - I'm really sorry you're feeling as though your quality of life is awful.

Have you had any success in getting another appointment for an ablation? When will you see the family doctor who prescribed your medication?
