    Hi, I have L5S1 and have been in chronic pain since last September, I have been to see the consultant at the hospital and the consultant is discussing weather to inject me or shave off the disc.this was over six weeks ago and I am still waiting. I have been taking tremadol and wearing lidocain patches but still in pain. They have just now prescribed some morphine tablets so I'm hoping to get better pain relief

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

    I am so sorry you are in so much pain. I hope you do not have to wait much longer before you know what your Consultant has decided.

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

    Take care.

    Hi @Ache and welcome to the community. 🙂 Hopefully you hear back from them soon. Is there any way you can chase them up for an ETA if it's passed the original timescale they provided you?

    Hi @Ache I hope the morphine kicks in for you and hopefully you hear something from your consultant. Nothing worse then pain
