After 2 years my tablets zapaine have not reduced my pain for 5 months now my chronic pain is now unbelievable. 2 weeks ago I Was rushed to the accident and emergency with so much pain, on my arrival after some time a saw a duty doctor who mentioned I Should be taking a higher dose about 40g. On leaving she asked me to tell my doctor tomorrow and after talking to me she should he help. I told her I have when all this stated ,well she was not happy .On ariving at my doctors and explained this all she could not cair like. I told her about me over medication myself sometimes for the continuaus pain, nothing i could not belive it . What do about all this my pain is dreadfully and pulling my family apart due to this problem.

Is your pain from your shoulder?

I’ll go ahead and try to answer here.

First of all you should be not taking it any pain medication for five years from rotator cuff surgery

It sounds like you could be getting addicted to, or used to them.

What is the pain from? That’s what you need to find out. Did you have rotator cuff surgery or some sort of surgery? It sounds like the pain pills are not working because your body is too used to them. I would find a new doctor and explain that you are in pain and get the treatment you need to not be in pain anymore.

Have you tried a tens machine? I found it moderately helpful and no side effects as from strong painkillers

Yes thank you think it is knotted maby thay dont know but when started zapain 2 years ago OK last 4 months stopped working I went to emergency doc they said you should take try 50g tramodole she gave me 4 fantastic best day night ever. My doc wont give me any im having terbale pain hear

My doctor gives me tramadol, it’s the only thing that works but makes me feel ill. I’m booked in for surgery and hope that will be a permanent fix. The flare ups of bursitis leave me in agony and with no use of my arm. Good luck with your treatment.

Thank you mia people dont understand thought all an my own till all you lovely guys and ladys

Me to it last long my burstursts. How lang your last. Hope all well with surgary what was wrong with you if you dont mind

Well take it your shoulder

I’ve had recurrent episodes for 15 years. Usually responded to steroid injections. This time didn’t and bad pain for 1 month. Im having an arthroscopic excision calcification and subacrimial decrompression in a few weeks. Shoulder pain is less at the moment but I dread it flaring up again. I’m not a wuss! I have a high pain tolerance but this condition is soooo painful. People don’t undetstand. I go days without sleep because of the pain when it’s bad and get so despairing. See another doctor if yours is unsympathetic but take care with tramadol as it’s very addictive x

Yes jenny horrible lady do you know she will not let me try tranodol at all using all this stuff to show the little cow hope you dont mind

Sorry about your pain realy hope all will be really well for you
