| Re: PAIN MANAGEMENT---what a joke! I've been through this myself--won't go into the horror stories. Have you tried a TENS unit? Seen a ostopath? Read "Pain Free" by Peter Egoscoe (sp?) I almost jumped into traffic and off a bridge I was in so much pain and not getting real help with it after a work injury. All the above things helped to a degree, but the pain is here to stay, but these things has lessened the intesity. All the meds ever did was bring on vertigo, they were never strong enough to do anything for the pain. Make a goal for yourself and get yourself to a rehab specialist. And treat yourself to a massage--your due one after what you've gone through. Hang in there you will find a way. |
