Is there not some other medication or physio that your GP can help with. It's not nice to be in pain.
 
Take all the meds I can done everything else last resort was injections. Had recent op on hip but not worked!!! Now bloody diabetes stopped 6 monthly jabs
 
Hi @Tylers73, is it steroid injections that have been stopped? If so I totally understand how you feel. I used to have them for my spine,hip and leg problems but they were stopped because of the effect they have on my diabetes. I am on a low dose oral steroid still because after 12 years I am now steroid dependant and its too dangerous for me to come off completely. Even that causes major problems with regulating my blood sugars! Anyway, After trying most things, I'm now on Butrans patches with an option of additional zapain. The patches have made an amazing difference! Have you been offered anything like them? Sue xx :)
