Wink Just Saying "Hi"

Hello Everyone,

I was a newbie to BT and so I guess that makes me a refugee now too!

I am 37 and have been dealing with thoracic back pain for the last 10yrs.
My condition has continued to change each year along with my pain, therefore changing meds and treatments constantly.

I have tried all passive forms of treatment from PT, Massage, to injections etc.
No luck with anything, except I do continue with Registered massage on a weekly basis, she keeps my spasms under control.

For the past 4.5yrs I have been on Fentanyl patches now @75mcg @ 48hrs and recently added Cymbalta for nerve pain.

I have just been scheduled for Spinal Fusion with Instrumentation from T-7
to L-1 in October, so I guess I have that to look forward too now.

Keeping my fingers crossed that it will bring me some relief!

Nice to meet you all, look forward to getting to know you better

Momba

Hello Momba and Welcome to Neurotalk - it's great to have you hear with us! You will meet many great people here who i'm sure will try and help you in anyway they possibly can!!

I'm so sorry to hear about everything that you have been through! I don't have any experience dealing with what you are going through so can't help you unfortunately but just wanted to let you know that you are in my thoughts and prayers and that I hope the spinal fusion you have in October will give you the relief you so desperately need and deserve!!

Take care of yourself and if you need any help, please don't hesitate to ask - i'll try and help you if I can and i'm sure many others will too!

Hope to see you around more soon!

Alison

Welcome to NT

Don't be afraid of the needles. They have helped me a lot. Not all the injections I had helped but most of them did.

I pray you find peace.
