Dear Ginnie and Mark,
I have been unable to work at my profession for four years after a neck fusion with some cord damage. It has been a tough journey but after continuing physical therapy and experimenting with different combination of meds I am able to deal with the pain and depression better. I won't be able to return to my profession, (professor of nursing) but I have worked hard to maintain as "normal" life style as possible.
Everyday is different though. Like today i am in the house with pain after overdoing my workout. Sometimes i need more meds then other days.
I continue to research and try other methods for pain relief. I have done a lot of acupuncture, acuscope therapy, tens, trigger point injection, massage, etc...Always looking for something new.
I totally understand what you are dealing with and wish i could find something for all of us who deal with this everyday. My best to both of you and be strong!
