I've been using Tapentadol for chronic nerve pain for the last 5 years. It has worked wonders for me, and helped eradicate any pain I had previously been experiencing. However, I guess as is standards with most pain meds, its efficacy has dropped quite dramatically over the last 6 months or so, meaning I now notice the pain a lot more again. I'm in need of an alternative.
Has anyone experienced similar problems, and what alternatives, opioids or otherwise, are there to try and manage my pain going forward?
Cheers!
Brian
