I had to go look that up, as i had not heard of it before. One thing I note is that while it is not curable (YET) it is quite treatable most times, making life worth living for those suffering from it, and extending life time for them as well. so, be of good courage that there is hope for your wife.
I will say a prayer for your wife, and I would encourage you to advocate for your wife - pain is not easy to deal with and if she is not getting relief, keep on the staff at the hospital to find something else to try... she needs relief to cope
Please keep us posted and I will keep you both in my thoughts and prayers.
