I can’t take the pain anymore

It takes time but you learn to live with and minimise it as much as possible. I wear Fentanyl patches (3 totalling 125 microgrammes per hour) which I am told is the guideline beyond which the side-effects are worse than the pain. Personally I wish I could show just how wrong these people are but that cannot happen. My ongoing and progressive neural pain is the worst though and is aggravated by any walking but I either move and suffer or don't and starve or die of thirst, so I put up with it. I explain this to care professionals but they will never understand. I have tried ALL the neural pain killers and the 2 effective ones make me vomit which merely aggravates the pain further. I am not allowed care because I reported a Social Worker when she made some stupid mistakes due to lack of training and now they will never allocate me another and therefore no care either. I really do not care about this as their support was always useless anyway.

There is a physical limit at which the pain simply cannot be felt any more above a certain level and the Pain Clinic can teach methods to reduce the pain generated. This may not be much to hang onto but there is little else I can suggest.
