Question by Amy M welcomed twins 12-7-08: Pain management clinic. What can I expect?
I have recurrent pancreatitis, non-specific colitis and horrible upper back, neck, arm and hand pain. The back pain we are still trying to figure out the cause. My doctors are sending me to a pain management clinic now because taking 2 10mg Lortab per day isn’t doing enough. What can I expect? Only 2 pills per day doesn’t give me the all day relief I need, but helps somewhat. My quality of life isn’t good and I have a lot of trouble sleeping. I have trouble caring for my 4 month old twins because of the arm and hand pain as well. I’d like to hear from pain management patients what their experiences have been like and what kind of treatment they get. Thank you so much.
