Hi Adaris. Just a thought to give you some temporary relief--have you tried pain medication? Although I don't recomend mixing meds and alcohol, you said a stiff drink and a 10mg Valium worked. There are quite a few new pain meds available, although it seems a majority of Dr.'s are hesitant to prescribe them. You may have to find a pain medication specialist. This may give you much needed temporary relief until you can determine a long term solution. Take care and good luck!
