Pythonlover is correct this can only be addressed by your treating specialist.

There are Pain Management organisations, well there are in Australia, that do tremendous work in this area.

Upping your meds is only a band aid approach and if you Medico can only offer this I would urge you to get a second or even third opinion.

Please no offence intended but as someone who had a wife who became addicted to prescribed drugs, quite often the patient unknowingly has discomfort to get more drugs.

The human mind is a strange and unpredictable device.

Good Luck

Yes PL...the cycle of more pain, more drugs, more drugs, more pain, is an awful addiction to behold. I, too, have had to witness that and it is sad.

This is something that has to be addressed with your treating doctor, maybe the doctor can up your medication, to help with pain management.
