Hi,

I am writing this on behalf of my Mother who had to have plastic surgery
due to developing decubitus ulcers. This was related to her myelitis.
She had the surgery done 18 months ago and is now experiencing
excruciating pain from what the doctors think is build up of scar tissue
from the surgery??? Has anyone experienced anything like this? The
Doctors are trying different types of pain killers and they have her
doubling up on them. The ones she is on is Fiorcet/Butalbital and
Darvocet. I need help, please respond if anyone has any information or
ideas. Thank you, Janis
