3 weeks ago I had a below the knee amputation. The pain started ramping up about 2 days later. Some of it phantom, maybe all of its phantom because, nothing can touch this pain. You name it I've tried it. There is one combo that worked and that was 1mg Klonopin, twice daily and then literally j could take 5mg of oxycodone and be fine. Obviously I don't want to be on meds forever and I'd like to know if anyone else has gone through this. It might be getting better with time, hard to tell.

So about a month ago I went through a below the knee amputation. What's got me nervous is this damn phantom limb pain. I've been up for days because of it and opiates have no sizable difference which is just crazy to me. It almost seems like the nerves that were left in my leg are just causing me opiate withdrawal symptom. If anyone's ever heard of this, please let me know what I can do
