From the FDA Black Box Warning for clonazepam:
Concomitant use of benzodiazepines and opioids may result in profound sedation, respiratory depression, coma, and death. Reserve concomitant prescribing of these drugs for patients for whom alternative treatment options are inadequate. Limit dosages and durations to the minimum required. Follow patients for signs and symptoms of respiratory depression and sedation.
Is your physician monitoring you for respiratory depression?
Have you looked into chronic pain management/rehabilitation clinics? The good ones offer an integrated, multidisciplinary approach including specialists in physical therapy, psychology, occupational therapy, biofeedback, nursing, and nutrition.
