Hi hope it works for you. Can you tell me what type of infusion it is please? Had ZA infusion in Nov not been the same since, flare which won’t settle, losing the will to live, would love an infusion to take pain away 😊.

Hello glad to hear it's given you some rest bite from some pain.

I didnt realise you could get an infusion of it as i wear the patches which are like a gaint plaster. 8 hours on 8 hours off. They really do help.

So i found it interesting you can get it as an infusion. It would be good to know how long it last. The reduced pain. I guess time will tell.

Keep resting and improving.

I can't use morphine patches so i had a lidocaine infusion and yes it has helped. I still have pain,but nothing to what i was getting before it.xxxx

Oh well done, Sylvie. It is so hard to do nothing when you're a naturally busy person. It's really good to hear the infusion is helping your pain. If only it would take it away. Huge gentle hugs
