Hello, most of us have pain, and take many different avenues for relief. I have in the past, called 911!!! The pain was very bad and i had neurological pain (very bad). I now have a morphine pump implant in my stomach and it stops me from screaming. I think this pump has worked for me in more ways than one. I hope i never use anything else. I have had success with the morphine pump and i do not want to chance being without it.

I get relief the minute, it should start...yes, you do have break thru pain with the pump...i do not want to experience, the pain again!! It works for me and gives me a chance to live a near normal life. So, i am happy with the treatment.

Respectfully, mickey

I take Celebrex twice daily and cymbalta nightly. I have had 25 knee operations as well as numerous others. I have problems with my SI joint as well. I take 1-2 Percocet every 6-8 hours. Plus I ice and heat constantly.

For the bone pain, ONLY oxycodone works. For spasticity of the muscles I have found dry needling to work the best

After a car crash a couple of years ago, my neck hurt so much that turning my head felt impossible some days. Painkillers helped only for a little while, and I needed something that lasted longer. That's when I thought about trying physiotherapy. I ended up going to the Ottawa Physical Rehab Clinic for help. Dr. Greg was my physio there, and it was like he knew just what I needed. He showed me special exercises meant just for my kind of neck pain and did some treatments that really helped. It didn't make the pain go away right away, but after a while, I started to feel a lot better. Dr. Greg also taught me ways to keep the pain down on my own, which has been great.
