Thanks zorkoth for reply,and also amount of info...sorry for delay in reply,but have been 'off site' for many months and only just relogged on! i will look into 'what ibogaine flood dose',as not ever heard of it.Just out of interest i was eventually transferred onto after,solpadol and gabapentin and amiltryptiline(complete waste of time that!!)i am now and have been on dihydrocodeine for about six months now,and although it works better than the other things i tried,it still is nowhere near good enough to help with the pain for more than a few hours,and that is when i'm taking a day or twos worth(at least)8-16 in one go.Anyway i have finally got myself an appointment to see someone who,hopefully be able to prescribe me something that will actually give me adequate pain releif.will keep you posted,and also will look into what 'ibogaine flood dose' is and get back on it.
