Severe nerve pain

[Runaround50]

How the actual fuck do people manage this kind of pain??

I was diagnosed with nerve damage in my left arm in January. Been prescribed amitryptyline which does nothing. This latest flare up is off the scale. Pain in my hands, wrists, shoulder, neck, chest ( referred pain?)

I've tried every pain killer, deep heat, deep freeze and CBD oil and now I feel sick with pain. Consultant says nothing can be done? Really?? It's horrid. I'm thinking of cannabis next !

Please help someone. I've got another GP appointment in just over a week but don't want more painkillers.

@HappyHamsters fab what did physio do

Exercises, they started the day after op. Gradual swinging arms side to side, hands out front up and down, I did them at home, they saw me before discharge home. I Wore a sling for a few days and just gradually built up movement and strength.mi needed occy health doctor assessment before I went back to phased return to work, nurse.
