Pam, I don't know you, but most on this forum know spinal pain and will listen anytime you feel like talking. Please call that doctor back up, and explain the severe pain you are in.

This happen to me in September and I called mine up and told his nurse I couldn't take the pain two weeks longer. They got me in less than a week. They already knew my problem and even the doctor called me to have me tell him exactlly what the pain was like. I had second degree burns on my back where the heating pad had burned my back. I just couldn't take it either. My husband had passed away in July and that pain was fresh too. I did let them know that this wasn't emotional but severe pain. I kept loosing the skin on my back where the burn was, and it was close to the surgery place.

Talk to us anytime. I don't sleep well and you probably don't either. You can PM any of us if you don't want it on the forum. We will understand.
Blessings,
Billie
