NSAIDS ARE BANNED DUE TO BLEEDING & CODIENE CONSTIPATES & THEN MORE BLEEDING

I HAVE BEEN REFERRED TO A PAIN MANAGEMENT DOCTOR.

THE NEUROLOGIST ( ALSO MIGRAINE CERTIFIED) AND THE INTERNIST & GASTRO DOCTORS HAVE CONFLICTING IDEAS AND DRUGS.

WHAT ELSE IS LEFT TO TAKE FOR SEVERE PAIN?

I HAVE BEEN TO THE ER AND THEY GAVE ME STRONGER CODIENE

ANY SUGGESTIONS OUT THERE?
