Sally, I totally agree. My sister, God rest her soul, was in a horrible car accident when she was 18. She had 2 fractured vertebrae in her neck and it took them 2-3 yrs before docs found it. Well, long story short, her neck was operated on and then came the pain meds. She was in chronic pain until the day she died. It had gotten to the point where she was at her highest level of morphine and it wasnt working.
