General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

I'm sorry to know you are such in pain with your throat cancer diagnosis. Unfortunately, pain is always a bad companion to cancer patients.

However, I do think you need to increase the dose of the pain killers you are currently taking. And to start another more potent pain killer.

Should talk to your doctor for this.

All the best.
