I'm so sorry the pain has got the best part of you, it had me to my life was just about coping through another day the pain woke me up and I went to sleep when I took to much sleeping medication just to get a break from the pain. My hero drug is oxy-contin it is a opiod it is addictive, but it relieves my pain and gives me some quality of life, it doesn't take all the pain away it's not magic but it was a small miracle for me just to feel I could live and have some quality of life. I don't know if it will work for you I'm on 60mg twice aday and use Tramadol 200mg for break through pain, give it a try you got nothing but the pain to lose I hope it works for you I do know where you are and it is hell Warm Hugs Jeannie
