My husband has been diagnosed with an irritated nerve root from his lower back several years ago. The pain radiates down his hip and leg. He has been to a pain clinic here in Canada where they started him on opiods for pain . He has seen 2 neurosurgeons after having MRI s done and both have said that there is nothing they can do for him. He also has lower back degenerative disc disease which of course cannot be treated with surgery. Even with the oxyneo twice daily plus morphine 2mg for breakthrough pain, he still suffers. I would love to see him off the opiods but it seems as if nothing else helps. He has been for acupuncture, chiropractor, physio, massage...you name it and he has tried it. What would you recommend that he should do.
