How To Eliminate Pain After Motor Cycle Accident?
my husband had a motor cycle wreck Jan of 2007, he had internal bleeding, broken arm, (metal holds it together since) he had a broken pelvis, which they called an open fracture, he has had 3 surgeries to put metal to hold it together, he had a bone graft it finally took, he is under the care of the VA pain management, he is on morphine 30 mg, and 60 mg,. he is in extreme pain 24/7 no matter how many times he has told them how bad it hurts, they just continue to give him the same meds. he is disabled due to not being able to sit/stand or walk very long, and the pain as I said is on a scale of 1 to 10 is usually always an 8.. my question is , is there anything at all that can be done? thank you

I have read your question, pain since 2007! Was there any nerve injury also at the time of injury? Has he developed any tingling or numbness in his either leg?
