Marie I don't have answer's but am sorry you have to even think of this.
I have a nurse friend who used to work in this area and she tells me it's very important to get pain management before it becomes critical when it's harder to manage, just like taking nausea pills during chemo.
I hope Ed does'nt need this for a long time and will be thinking of you both
