I am wondering if this maybe what has caused most of my pain all of these years.. I did my first adjustment today and they have a huge rollout of things we are going to be doing in the next few months... I hope this can help me, I am so tired of the PAIN and the MEDS... Fingers are Crossed.

Williamrock,
I have had RSD/Chronic Pain since a roller blading accident in 2003. My husband always wants me to go to a chiropractor and just try it. He went for many years for his back prior to having 3 back surgeries. Most of my pain, which is under control but I do have times of flares, is related to nerve damage and I have limited use of my right arm. I never thought chiropractic care would help. After many years of treatments, medication, more treatments and more medications I have come to the conclussion the less meds. the better. To be fair I did have success with Ketamine therapy and that is what got me to a point where I could get off the medication and stapled me off to where I am today.The 2 things that I would love to get under better control are the headaches and the sleeping. I do get headaches which sometimes lead to a migraine and sleep forget it, I have the worst sleep pattern ever. Prior to this injury I was a great sleeper.
I would so appreciate your input as you go through treatments with the chiropractor.
Good luck, I wish you much success.
