I have papillary thyroid cancer and am waiting for surgery to remove it. i need pain relief for my left side neck lymph nodes and nurofen doesn't help?

Call prescribing: doctor and request more powerful pain control medication.

Pain reief: I would take Lyrica starting at a minimal doses titrate up to 900 mg./day as long as she has normal renal function

Thyroid cancer: In order to determine what to do, I will need more information: where are you feeling the pain? How intense is it? How would you describe it? All those are important questions in order to decide what to do.
