Finally given in (given up?)

Post by chrissy »

And increased my duloxetine to 120mg.
So much for weaning off my meds after the nerve blocks. I have given in and gone with my doctors suggestion and gone up to 120mg
I am now on 120mg duloxetine and 2400mg gabapentin plus over the counter pain killers. Feeling very down that things are getting worse not better....
I hope I can stab slide the pain and then gradually decrease the meds once I have done Physio
I feel like an old lady and I'm only 34 :(

I know what you mean, I am 36. I hate having to go though this social security disability but hopefully the stress of having to try to work in pain every day will help.

I dont know how I would take it if I did not have a loving wife and 8yo daughter.
