How well I know the medications are a blessing when wrestling with overwhelming pain without the blessin gof a functioning scs implant. But for those very medications, I rather imagine I would long ago have taken up viewing grass and other horticultural delights from the root side. I far prefer the green side of the grass and the kaleidescopic color wheel of flowers and such.

OH......that arm pain... which lingers and lingers.... I pursue physical therapy, massage, and traction for now as palliative remedies for that pain because I do not have an scs which reaches the cervical heights of my neck, I do not have pain meds, I do not want to pursue more surgery, and I am wearing thin on tolerance of the pain....

Thank you for the dear message voicing concern. Yes it is there. Right now it is aching as a matter of fact, and I do one step at a time each day working to handle it.....

Blessings on you,
yup,
