My parents live in a retirement center and my dad goes out in the hallway while my mom is busy in another room or in the bathroom. Does anyone know of a lock or other way of keeping him from being able to get out the door if she is in the shower, etc.

This is a question for the professional. There are specialized pain clinics if your family Physician cannot help. Amytriptaline is a tri-cyclic anti-depressant which is the only one in it’s class to increase the pain threshold. It is not the easiest to take due to side effects (sedation is one) but has helped chronic pain sufferers eg Fibromyalgia
Please do not depend on answers here alone but discuss with your doctor and ensure your depression is being treated also

Try a ’scrip for one of the stronger NSAIDS.
Yeah, they all work ‘about the same’ but some are noticeably stronger than others. Watch your tummy though. Take on a full stomach.

Neurotin is often a good choice. You take it all the time and it controls the pain.
Also as suggested see a psychiatrist to get good depression control. Depression is treatable and depression causes muscle pain on its own. So do take antidepressants such as SSRIs or the new ones life Effexor, Wellbutrin etc.
You DON’T need to suffer.
Best wishes.

There is one new medication that is an anti-depressant that also can treat acute pain such as some from arthritus and other pains. Cymbalta is the name.
It is FDA approved to treat Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathic Pain. Other unofficial uses is for fibromyalgia, pain in the muscles, ligaments, and tendons – the soft fibrous tissues in the body.
Also, possibly Irritable Bowel Syndrome. It would probably be perfect for you accept that it is primary used for depression.

It sounds like you are into the big boys of pain control. Are you on anti-depressants? One thing you can do is to increase any anti-depressant medication you are on. If you are already on an SSRI for depression, all I could suggest would be a stonger anti-inflammatory, such as Diclofen.
