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!
