Hi there Twigletto ,

I'm thinking they give us zombifiying Pregablin in the hope that if we are knocked out we will be too out of it to realise we are in pain !!

Would like the Doctors to take it and see how they feel lol 😊 xx

That made me laugh 😃

I saw the rheumy yesterday and after hearing that the BuTrans 20g didn't touch the pain either he has referred me to the pain clinic. Besides arthritis, I have a bulging disc pushing on s nerve giving me sciatica. Maybe I will get a painful injection. Has anyone had one of those?

Ouchy Twigletto that sounds nasty!

I've not had those injections -good luck to you.

But I'm currently waiting to have a scan to see if I need steroid injections

Hi Vegenista, the only drug that stopped all pain was predisinole. Steroid. But I had to come off it due to the side effects . Hope you don't have to wait too long 😊
