      Hi! After 17 years of living with chronic pain and fatigue, this is the first time I have checked into 'any' support group at all.

      Treatments

      Aqua Therapy Somewhat Helpful
      I've gotten back to the water. not so sure it works, but I enjoy the water as it is relaxing.
      Cymbalta Working / Worked
      no longer have suicidal thoughts after taking it for 5 weeks.
      Duragesic Patch Not Working
      After trying that with little results, my dr. recommended the 'sister' med. called 'actiq' which is in the form of a lolly pop. That works well for me
      Fentanyl Working / Worked
      After being put on this med. five years ago, I got my life back!! It was my life syrum. Make your dr. write you a script it will give you your lifge back
      Spinal Cord Stimulator Working / Worked
      GOING TO ASK DOC ABOUT THIS
      Spinal Cord Stimulator Working / Worked
      GOING TO ASK DOC ABOUT THIS
      Oxycodone Considering
      WANT TO TRY
      Fentanyl Working / Worked
      WORKS GREAT, BUT DOC I HAVE NOW IS GIVING ME A HARD TIME ABOUT IT, WANT TO FIND A DOC THAT UNDERSTANDS AND IS NOT AFRID TO PRESCRIBE THE MG. THAT WORK FOR ME.
