Re: Trapped nerve in my back.
Longfellow , I can sympathise with you. I know exactly what you are going through. I had a knee replacement in September which went very well, despite the fact that I am unable to take any painkillers stronger than paracetamol. It appears that theidural injection they gave me for the op has hit a nerve in the base of my spine, and since then the pain has been excruciating. I had an MRI last weekend but I understand it will be many weeks until I get the result. I am really incapacitated and can barely hobble around my bungalow. I too have tried heat pads,ice pads and a TENS machine all tono avail.Re: Trapped nerve in my back.

Longfellow, I have COPD and am on an inhaler, so have to be careful which meds I take. I could not even take the morphine following my surgery. I have a review appointment with a GP next week, so I will push him/her (?) to prescribe something. I too could do with a decent night’s sleep instead of the occasional hour before the pain wakes me.Re: Trapped nerve in my back.
