Brief Answer:
buprenorphine transdermal patch

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Since you are having pain in body from damaged nerves and you have history of non hodgkins lymphoma stage 4, I would advise you to apply buprenorphine 5 mg transdermal patch locally.

It is 7 times more potent than fentanyl.

You can apply it below the collar bone.

You need a doctors prescription for it.
