Appendix 1. Responses of study participants to the question: What are the
major issues and challenges associated with the treatment of neuropathic pain?
Responses given by physicians to this question (which in some cases may be
brief, informal or abbreviated) are presented "as is", except in those cases
where minor grammatical or typographical corrections have been necessary for
reasons of clarity.

comments relating to the treatment of Neuropathic Pain? Responses physicians
to this question by physicians (which in some cases may be brief, informal or
abbreviated) are presented "as is", except in those cases where minor
grammatical or typographical corrections have been necessary for reasons of
clarity.
