I would love nothing more than to never need a pain med again lol! But I do want to find a doc that gives a crap. My friend has a really good one that's a few hours away but he does write three...
Sorry I haven't been on, I have been extremely ill the last couple weeks. Took two weeks to get my last pain med refill. I need to know how long you were all on pain meds from your fusions please! I...
No mention of physical therapy. I didn't have to wear a collar at all since they not only removed the osteoma but also fused my facet joints on both sides of my C4 and 5. That is also where they...
I have to say from all I have learned online that saying I can ride horses after only six weeks seems a tad far fetched? From all I have read we really aren't supposed to even exercise til three...
My visit went well, got longer scrip for meds but no real explanation on the previous delays. Is it normal to still be tired all the time and not feel like doing much six weeks out? My doc told me I...
Oh, I plan to. It's weird because he did my anterior last August and always gave me s month at a time. The nurse actually had to have a different doc give me these refills since my doc was always in...
I haven't been on here as I just went through the worst five days of withdrawal ever. My husband drove all the way down on Wednesday to finally pick up my refills. I was so so so sick and in so much...
I am supposed to see him Wed., but after no pain meds for that long and getting sick from that again, I don't know how I can make the 2.5 hr drive there even if someone can drive me. He has me on 5mg...
Uggh, sick to stomach today and really hurting thanks to the huge refill delay again! What are your thoughts on heat vs. ice for this stuff? When I sleep I wake up so stiff I get the head zaps etc,...
Here is a really great, funny article that hits the nail on the head! Enjoy! http://www.painnewsnetwork.org/stories/2015/6/12/there-is-no-epidemic-of-painkiller-overdoses ...
Thank you Susie. I'm just so frustrated. I've been left to hang dry again for this entire weekend at the very least since once again they are taking their sweet time. And then, if they manage to mail...
Thanks again you guys! Yes, I am puzzled by the muscle relaxer thing too. When I broke my ribs the docs there sent me home with tons of meds and huge bottles of muscle relaxers. I love my surgeon,...
I feel you! I had an anterior C4,5 fusion last August that did nothing for my pain. Luckily my doc did not give up and that surgery was a blessing in disguise because they couldn't do another MRI,...
Thank you all! Yes, my doc said I could ride again in six to eight weeks and right now I will be happy to just feel like doing ANYTHING by then! I wish they didn't make it so hard to get pain med...
Hi all, just seeking some help and advice. After 20 yrs of misdiagnosis and increasing neck pain to where I was finally pretty much housebound and bedridden, and having been thru sooo many docs who...
I put it under chronic pain, I hope I did it right. http://www.healingwell.com/community/default.aspx?f=30&m=3380925 ...
Here is a link to another thread on here about CBD products and how they can help with pain from fibro, arthritis, etc. for those of you who need help and are at the end of your ropes. I'm talking...
It can be expensive but I get my 500 mg CBD, 2 oz tinctures for $38.00, same brand that I first bought off of Amazon for $94.00. I get 30 of the 25 mg capsules for $42.00. If you email these places,...
The CBD oil I get is from industrialized hemp, not the medical marijuana CBD oil. But that is crazy that they got arrested! I wonder if it had THC in it so was picked up by the postal service as pot....
I just "discovered" CBD oil for myself, and researched for over a week solid. They are expensive- BUT- if you go to cannavest.com, they are the makers of most of the products resold/repackaged by...
