Now here I am years later feeling like I broke my neck and my back all over again. I have plenty of pain medication to ease the pain, but never completely stop the pain, I've gotten use to it now, but it still get overwhelming on the bad days which seem to be increasing more and more....now. I have a great Neuro!!!
I haven't had surgery as of yet, but I've had a couple of steriods injection in my back and recently one in my left wrist, I should be getting a call from the hand surgeon office to schedule my carpal tunnel surgery for my right wrist. The neuro said since the Lyrica is helping with the pinch nerve in my neck, he's gonna put off the surgery for that and come see him in the next three months, and we will review the option to have C5 surgery done.
