I’ve had some chiropractors help

I prefer acupuncture

I don’t buy they can cure major organ disease

Relieve pinched nerves ...maybe

It’s an insurance procedure

Multiple visits same routine

With my level of acute cervical spondylosis it’s too risky for me someone snapping my neck .....

Piece of spur enters spinal cord canal I’m going to be worse than I am

I have left neck pain a steady 6-7

Left trap stabbing pain can go for hours at 8-9

I consider bad toothaches and kidney stones and no block ripped vag to anus for loggerhead births and phantom amputee pain 9s...some shingles too

Third degree burns and chronic stomach and bone cancer .....peritonitis .....that trigeminal neuralgia ...and various exotic insect and fish poisons are the 10s

Only relief and it’s minimal is standing under hot shower head

And five percent lidocaine patch blanket or injection around 8-9 points into the muscles and general vicinity

Maybe 50 mg oxycodone over 3-4 hours ...I’m 240 six five

And 50 mg prednisone daily which is not healthy but is actually the most effective drug it just stops kidneys from cortisol production and can cause fluid retention so more diuretics are needed so U piss every hour or two

I’ve dealt with this 20 years and it’s reached the end of the internet

I don’t like pain meds at this level though they offfered a fifty mg fentanyl patch last year which i refused....stupid me

Valium helps but it’s zonky

Soma....same but ditto...zonky

Zanaflex just puts me to sleep

Yes I am awaiting surgery ...but taking eliquis for old motorcycle wreck blood clot in left sapphic nobody is what I’d call eager to take it on

Don’t know about heroin withdrawal but stopping steroids is not a warm and fuzzy proposition I can tell u...I tried cold Turkey without googling and it was brutal ....I gave up quick

It’s like my rather long skeleton has just decided hey we’re done .....neck..knees ..hip....rheumatism in hands and elbows

But I push on.....no handicapped sticker for me....F ALL THAT CRAP

Like we said when young ....sleep when you’re dead

Now it’s ....quit when you’re dead..lol

Have I complained enough..lol

Dang, if I were you I’d be a full-scale alcoholic on a vodka drip. I don’t know how you function!
