Hi Paget,

I'm sorry for your bad day. Just as an FYI, not that it will provide any

help, after my modified Whipple in 1986 I had continuous pain for about two

weeks

after release from the hospital. Then occasional pain for about 5 months. The

pain episodes were treated successfully with " Emprin 4's " (I think that was

aspirin and codeine, but I don't know the milligram dosage). I continued to have

some episodes of pain that were determined to be caused by an incisional

hernia. I got that repaired late in 1987 and then had pain free active life

until

CP came along in 1999.

I hope you can successfully reach a working agreement with your doctor, pain

management group, or whatever you need to do to have successful treatment.

Best of luck

Best wishes, Poncho - GA

Paget,

I'm so sorry you got such a horrible person for a surgeon. Sounds more

like he can't admit that his surgery isn't working perfectly and

therefore is blaming you. Of course, that's just my opinion as I'm not a

doctor or anything. However, I do definitely hope you find another GI

and a good pain clinic. just wanted you to know that I am thinking of

you and that you find the right doctor for you asap.
