I'm not surprised that you are still in pain. I was taking 3 different pain killers at one time all day long for years. All I did was get high. Never helped my pain. If anything, I think they made it worse. I also have back and knee problems. Went the narcotic route, but I am an addict and can't take them as prescribed. So I flushed everything, went through c/t w/ds at home. It was hard for the first couple of weeks, but everyday got better and better. I go to the Dr.'s and get pain injections....they don't take away all my pain, but helps a lot. I had to learn had to live with a disability. How to bend over, stretch..ect. Hang in there, You can do this!! God Bless.

Hi, I don't understand your question? Are you saying you are still in pain even with the medication? Do you want to get off the medication? Give us a little more information and maybe we can help you.
