Hi ladies been back to see my gyne and he's referring me to a specialist who specialises in pain blocking!

Has anyone had this done and if so what can I expect? Xxx

I had my first pain management appointment today. Mine said I can wait a little longer and see what happens or i can get a Mri to see if I have a pinched nerve in my low back.

Yes! It helped me so much. It helped me to get a non addictive form of morphine that works more long term. And I honestly felt like they cared so much about making me be able to do normal life compared to a lot of other doctors. I hope you have a good experience too.

Hello Princessming123.....can you tell me where you had your pain management help? Certainly never been able to get ANY medication help out of my pain clinic - they almost seem to actively discourage it. So what's the non-addictive form of morphine you mentioned? I've heard people mention "MST", but don't know if that would be it. Many thanks

It's butrans patches :) yeah they are helping me to come off codeine and morphine so they are discouraging me from pain relief really :) this was in Chester-le-street in County Durham. I hope you manage to find help.

Please tell me what the pain block is for??? If its for endometriosis be aware any pain block will only temporarily mask what is going on. Ridiculous! Pain meds no matter how strong will not deal with the problem!
