Extract:
A client in an outpatient pain management clinic reports that their leg pain began 1 year ago after an injury that affected the spinal nerves. The pain has an intense sharp quality 'like an electric shock'. The client rates the pain level 9 on (0-10) scale after taking opioids & non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents and receiving acupuncture.
