Does anyone have anything to share about chronic neuropathic pain?
I work at a chronic pain clinic that deals with cases like yours everyday. We take a multidisciplinary approach to dealing with it which includes Doctors, Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Exercise Therapists, Psychologists and Nurses. It is usually not possible to totally eliminate the pain, but it is possible to lessen it and improve functioning with it. However, without knowing a bit more about your history it is difficult to offer advice. You can take a look at our clinics website or drop me an email if you have questions. Off hand though it sounds like you might be an advocate for a nerve root block, which can selectively limit pain with a site specific injection.
