See docs...: You need to see your doctors -both hematologist and chronic pain specialist. These pains are going to be part of your life, and you need long term planning to deal with them. When you have acute crisis, you may need transfusions, hydration, IV pain meds or all. In between you need to learn how to manage your chronic pain without becoming a narcotic addict. Many options are out there!
