Re: Nucynta ER

Just an update..

It does work better for my pain than the targin. I have felt a little spacey on it, but have been told this could withdrawal from the targin as well.

Re: Nucynta ER

Just in the process of switching from targin to palexia 50mg which I believe is nucynta. I have been on targin for a few years now and doesn't seem to be working as good as it used to.

Re: Chronic Pelvic Pain Sydney

My MRI result showed an annular tear l5/s1

MRN is a good idea to at least rule out any serious pathology in the pelvis.

Re: Surgery did not work

An update, After all this time they seem to think my pain is coming from the sacral nerves and always has. Just lately I have had a lot more sciatica on the same side as my rectal pain.
