Anyone here have trouble getting a pain med from their doctor?
My sister has AWFUL pain in her feet from diabetic neuropathy. It is agonizing and she said it's like a pliers is in her toes, ripping it. Nerves are severely compressed and inflamed with neuropathy so I can only imagine how horrible her pain is. She says the numbness is worse. But there's no treatment for that.
She was prescribed Gabapentin and Lyrica which are nerve meds but they do nothing. She truly needs a strong pain med and no doctor seems to want to prescribe one. Many other neuropathy patients on the forum she's on were prescribed morphine. Did you ever have issues trying to get a real medication for pain? She can't go on much longer like this.
