thank tou for the replies. i got my mri finding two buldging disk in my lower back (forgot which ones lol) and severe artritist in my hip and problems in my si join. they rx hydrocodone 5/325x2 daily and flexeril x3 a day which made me too tired so they took me off. i had the lumbar steroid injection which left me in more pain than before. but i'm going to give it one more try because i rather try anything to have my life back. instead of seeing the actual doctor i've been seeing the nurse practitioner and she had been amazing and i've been building a relationship with her which is great. she has also changed my meds to hydrocodone 7. 5/325x3 a day and robaxin x3 d day. so far this combo is slightly helping but i still am having trouble sleeping at night it seems like that's when i hurt the worse. she said on my next appt we will try a anti anxiety med to help me sleep. thanks again for your replies nice to know i'm not the only one out there. god bless
what medications can i talk to my pain management doctor about to help with my sciatica and constant migraines? . i am 24 years old with really bad sciatica and migraines. i am seeing a pain management doctor and for now he has me on a compound cream (which does nothing). he talked about doing steroid shots and from everything i have read it's all been negative because they aren't fda approve for the use of epidural pain relief. i hate that my doctors look at me like i'm a drug seeker because of me age. i want to play with my son again without pain. thanks in advance! courtney
