Right now, I'm taling Hydrocodone, and it's losing its efficacy. We're considering a Pregabalin compound, Lyrica, since it has an off label use for chronic pain and has no interaction potential with any of my heart meds or coumadin, It acts on the same mechanism as morphine by modifying the ability for the pain stimulus to cross the synaptic gap by reducint the action potential..essentially by reducing the line level voltage in the nerves and resulting in that it makes it so it takes a much stronger pain stimulus to cross the gap.

I tried hypnosis, and I apparently have too many trust issues. I can't be hypnotized because I cannot trust the hypnotherapist enough to be put under, no matter how much I want to,
Hypnotism is pretty much B.S. if you read the research. It probably isn't trust that interferes with your hypnotism. Instead, you just aren't prone to fantasy or dissociation.

My spouse uses Lyrica for nerve pain. It is fairly effective but not enough alone.
