Female

Already Tried:
She is having to take pain medicine Oxycontin, Perocoets, Somas, the purpose for getting the injections were to stop her pain, but she hurts worse. I called the his office and the receptions said put ice on it. But before leaving his office he said put heat on it. The pain meds are not taking the pain away she is hurting real bad.

I am having trouble finding nuvan, and I am unfamiliar with it. Can you double check the spelling? Where is your mother receiving the injections, for what condition and how many has she had?

Ice/heat is often alternated for pain in large muscles (like the back) This doesn't sound sufficient for the level of pain you describe.
