Glad i found this site,i was at my wits end with the pain. I now this is gonna sound nuts but i think after reading this site that it is the P causing my whole body pain!!!I have been getting treatments at at pain clinic for years now with no help for low back pain,i'm on avinza(time released morphine) and hydrocodone,and after hearing about people on here and their pain,i got to thinkin,after all these years getting treated for the wrong thing!!!:( So i called the doctor for an app. for this Wednesday,i read on here about the lower back pain,and i have spent the last 6yrs. lying on the floor, only to stand long enough to get a shower each day!Plus all the pain hasn't helped any in the weight department,my life right now is a total mess i only hope that this week will be a turning point!Thanks for listening,glad i made it here!!!:)

Thanks, yeah it i'm getting sick of the pain everyday,my teeth got bad because i can't set up long enough to go to the dentist. And when i go to the doctor i have to go in sign in and then say come out an get me i'll be out on the side walk laying!! And when i go to the pain clinic i have to go 80mi,from home i have to lay in the back of my sister's Jeep,and she runs in signs me in then i get out when they call me, i hate doing that cause i'm riding 80mi with no seat belt on,if we had a wreck i would be done for,course sometimes that wouldn't be a bad thing i guess!
