Endo and neuropathic pain

Hi

Have had extensive surgery and have tried Prostap, both to little effect.

My consultant thinks my pain is neuropathic. I have been referred to the pain clinic and she has asked my GP to prescribe gabapentin.

I have a Tens machine, sometimes this helps. I have tried acupuncture to no avail. I have Reiki and massage which at least relaxes me.

Has anyone got any tips on how I can help myself? I have a stressful full time job and am struggling at the moment.

Thanks 😀
