What Causes Severe Neck Pain Despite Having Disc Replacement In Neck?

I had 2 disc replaced in my neck in 2007 after an auto accident and a direct hit to the neck with an iron gate. I started having severe pain in my neck and arm after 1 yr. I have been on nsaids,narcotic pain medicines and steroidal injections for more than 7 yrs. I also have started cymbalta and lyrica months ago since stopping narcotics. Nothing seems to help the pain. What do I need to do next?
