My husband is taking tridural for shoulder pain. Finds it has taken away the pain completely but makes him very sleepy and feels like he is stoned all day. What ever you do, DO NOT take anyother med's while taking this stuff, it will mess you up.
I on the other hand take lyrica and oxycodon 10mg and only find that this gives me temporary relief . I take 2 lyrica at bedtime and 1 in the morning and anywhere from 1-3 oxycotec a day just to be able to function. Also have nrve block injection once every two weeks. These work better than any drug out there.
