Hi, Thank you for posting your query. It is unfortunate that you have to suffer so much pain, despite being on so many medications. If you have not tried pregabalin or gabapentin, then it may be worth trying them. Epidural injections and nerve blocks may also be helpful. Please get back if you require any additional information. Best wishes, Chat Doctor.
