kerri, try lupron, i know it has had a bad wrap with side effects, but if all else has been tried, maybe it would work for you? it works for me with little side effects so far. the first 3 months were hell, now its taking the pain away completely. discusss it with your doc, maybe its a temp. answer until you can figure something else out.
