I'm in a bit of a conundrum and would appreciate any suggestions on pain relief medications. Reference point: I'm in the USA.

I cannot use NSAIDs for a year post-spine fusion surgery (and they do nothing for me, anyway). I'm allowed to use Tylenol, but it does nothing either. I was prescribed Celebrex (celecoxib) but all it did was give migraine-like headaches and fatigue without any pain relief.

Is there anything else out there? My doctors are running out of ideas.

Thanks!
