Hi @Maryrose51 welcome to the Community. I hope you enjoy your time on the forum. Any questions just ask.

Thank you for telling us something about yourself. I am sure you have but can you discuss your pain with your GP. If the medication you are on is not controlling your pain perhaps you need a higher dose or a different combination.

No one should have to live with pain that is so bad they are unable to walk.

Have a look around and join in when you are ready.

Take care of yourself.

A very warm welcome to the community.

So sorry to hear you are in so much pain and how badly its affecting you.

Your current pain medication is clearly not working and it needs a review with your doctor.

Hi @Maryrose51 and a warm welcome to the community from me!

Thank you for telling us a bit about your situation. I'm so sorry to hear you're in so much pain, it sounds very uncomfortable and painful. As other members have mentioned it sounds like you really need to discuss this with your GP to hopefully find more appropriate and effective pain medication. Have you been able to contact them yet?

It's lovely to have you here and hope you enjoy your time on the community😊

Yes I am on a lot of pain killers from doctors. I am seeing a hip consultant on the 10th to discuss hip replacement
