I started this journey 15-16 years ago. They FINALLY figured it out after I had 7 compression fractures. The back pain would bring me to my knees. They finally sent me to a pain doctor who started me… read more
I was wondering if you could share with me what pain pill some are taking. Narcotics all the way to natural
I take 1 morphinene ir (immediate release) and a half percoset per day. But when I was first diagnosed I took 2 - 12 hour morphine per day for some serious back pain.
Do anybody suffer with severe neuropathy pain as a result of the chemo received doing treatment and the stem cells transplant. Well I do every day. In addition to that every now and then the severe pain becomes worst than normal. On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the worst it’s a 10 or more. I’m in that stat now as I write this with pain that brought tears to my eyes so I’m struggling to do this because for once I need an answer. Sometimes I feel alone when it happens. Please i have to know is… read more
Same here. I stayed in the recovery area for about 30 min. and then a cab took me to a nearby Best Western to stay for another full day, just in case. I was prescribed a pain med but I didn't need… read more
Has anyone done pt for neuropathy caused by cancer treatments?
I still take a spoon of coconut oil, even with the bioavailability; just to be sure and I don't want to waste money.....lol
Like so many with MM, pain is a major symptom. My husband is on Tramadol (an opiod) and Tylenol. Tylenol causes his kidney function numbers to rise, so he's hesitant to use this.

So none of these choices is good. My question is: What are others doing for pain management? Also, has anyone had accupuncture, and if so, did… read more
I take 2 gabapentine at bedtime and an OxyContin
Also rub blue emu on my numb feet and sear loose fitting socks
My husband is experiencing more pain all over. Has been reluctant to use any kind of pain medicine. Only takes Tylenol or Advil ir Aleve. Has achy legs and feet, rib pain and back pain.
I use Percoset every now and then and it works good for me. If you have continual pain I would see a real pain specialist ... at MDAnderson they have a pain clinic specifically for their cancer… read more
My leg pain was so bad I could not eat, sleep, walk... I was miserably in pain even when I was on Percocet the pain was still present. The only treatment that helped with most of my leg pain was Radiation therapy. My foot still has some pain left and throbs (prob from dissolving blood clots).
Has anyone out there had this experience with leg/foot pain? If so can we chat?
I used to not be able to wear shoes coz i felt like my feet were on fire until my husband started massaging every night with wintergreen oil or any sport cream, it helped a lot but did not completely… read more
