I have moved to the isle of wight and have to get a new referral to a new pain team to keep being reviewed regularly. I still have to take my pregabalin twice a day,but i put up with the foggy brain, clumsiness and poor balance in order to stay as pain free as i can. I have continued to wear my patches every day and have been on them since november last year. I had a 6week review and was seen by the nurse practitioner. I had to fill out a pain questionairs, had a physicL examination carried out by the consultant and she diagnosed my neuropathic pain immediately, and then at the same time prescibed my anaesthetic patches. The staff were lovely and they really listened to me and they never once said that i was making up my pain. Believe me, the chronic pain team will listen to you and will believe you, as pain is their speciality! I have has positive experiences with the chronic pain team i went to see in Edinburgh.
