Anyway being 36 hours out of surgery I feel as my back is broken. It hurts. I had Vicodin which came from the doctor who done my surgery, I take it so sparely I was only missing 10 pills out of a bottle that was filled two months ago, but I did pick up a new script on my way. So the doctor has taken good care of making sure I had pain medicine. I am just in shock, should I be in pain like this.
I am so scared of what this means, for my life I am a 31 year old with RSD and now SCS. What restriction do you live with?
Please share any and all info!  |
