Ache In Buttocks, Back Of Legs. Had 7 Back Surgeries, Used Fentanyl Patch And Suboxone. On Muscle Relaxer, Same. Help?

For over 5 months I have had extreme ache in both buttocks and down the back of both legs. I have had 7 back surgeries, the last being 09/12. Pain management as put me on strong opiates, with no relief. The last two being Fentanyl 25mg patch and Suboxone. I get nothing from these. Have also been on muscle relaxers with no relief. I am about at the end of my rope. This pain is constant, 24 hours per day. Any suggestions. Nothing I have been given gives me any relief. I refuse to be on opiates anymore.

HI
Thank for choosing HCM
I often tell my patients that the human body being made by God in such way that it feels the pain, and tolerate it, but the pain tolerating capability varies from person to person, nature gives the pain intensity according to person's capability once the intensity of pain reach the to the plateau mark then it start declining automatically, so build up your self just start bearing the pain, as hard as you can, have good day.
