Speak to GP or Macmillan nurse. Morphine (oral morph) is really the only thing we found that worked for us. I know it sounds harsh but it's just that PC i can be near nerves that gives the pain. Nurse is the best really they get the dose correct.

Jan I think Herbert has called it totally correct... Morphine is the best form of pain relief.... Be strong and look after your mum..... Dane
