Treatment and % of pain reduction

Hi, i am hoping to get some responses on:

- What treatment you took?

- What percentage of pain it reduced?

I see for some it was only partly reduce but I have pain everyday so I would like to see if some treatments achieved 100% or 90% pain reduction.

Hi I was told after a lot of occasions after going to A&E and to the GP that I have to manage my pain by taking certain medications. When the pain hits and it’s severe I take tramadol but then can’t function as it makes me feel drunk, itchy and sleep. The pain will go within a couple of hours until the next wave of pain hits me. You ask in percentage terms, I would say my pain is 100% and it reduced down to 20% once tramadol or codeine kicked in. Have you had any surgeries?

Every day I feel pain, a lot less now since taking the decepeptyl injections monthly but that isn’t a long term fix.

What medication do you take? X

Not what you're looking for?
