Confused new member needs help with pain mngmnt
i am a chronic pain sufferer due to a back injury 2 yrs ago. i have degen. disc disease, bulges, spinal compression, and nerve root impingement to both legs. i have tried everything from narc., muscle relaxers, antidepresants,steroid injections, epidurals, trigger point injections.....
not sure what else there is out there for me. surgery isn't an option in my case as long as i am able to get around because it is so risky and i could lose use of my legs. any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi ((Recluse)) and welcome to NeuroTalk. There are wonderful people here.

I understand the back problems, I have them as well. Have had tons of injections myself and really need to make an appointment to have my sacroliac joints done. IN a lot of pain.

You should stop by and visit the Spinal Disorders folks too! They would completely understand your situation. Here is the link to Spinal Disorders. http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forumdisplay.php?f=22

Hugs, and again, welcome to a great place.
