My boyfriend has a tumor in his stomach. His surgery isn t scheduled yet and he s in SEVERE pain. They will not prescribe him any type of pain medication other than ibuprofen because he is an opioid user. We NEED to find a way to deal with the pain, were willing to try everything, the opiates just aren t enough, he can t function in this type of pain... Please help!
