Hello Hurtin Nerves,
I'm sorry your in such distress and I have little information to relate other than I take Methadone for the PN pain. Have tried most everything and over time they quit working or made the condition worst. My prostate causes me more pain now than the PN (catheterize 5 times in 24 hour period). Its bad enough hardly being able to walk, but not able to sit comfortably. Hang in there spring is close, hopefully this too will pass and welcome to this forum. |
Let me recommend that you google Allsup on the web and call them today, I was approved for SSDI in five months, everyone has to wait five months to be approved. This company did it for me, I'd already filed b/c they recommend that's the very first thing to do after you are no longer working.
As for your pain, you are not alone, we all have had to make hard changes to how we live our lifes now, and how we deal with pain. Good luck, you have come to the right place. |

To Hurtin:
I went back thru your history to your first posts here. Your history shows that you developed this problem after needle work in your thoracic spine. Some of your early posts, here, were during my vacation so I did not see those. However, given that your PN began after a trauma, you need to investigate medical negligence before the statute of limitations ends for it in your state. Be aware that doctors do not respond to patients with an open helpful mind who may have been injured by another doctor. This type of situation, often closes doors rather than opening them, to solutions. It is the medical curtain of silence! At the time of your first postings, I suggested to you that you investigate RSD as a development with your pain issues. I also suggested that if you were using supplements back then with no effect, that you stop them (this was in summer before I left). Supplements are for people who are deficient, and have metabolic problems --- you have trauma as a trigger. However, based on your earlier post, the burning around the mouth MAY be due to low Vit D status (which impacts calcium use in the body)...and tingling around the mouth, is one sign of that. It is also a classic sign of anxiety. Most doctors consider the anxiety first. So I would get a serum Vit D run and see if you are really low. Fixing that has been shown in studies to improve chronic pain levels. Since you work in a law office, or did, you would have some access to advice about this matter, I would hope. |
Lidoderm Patches
I was curious about the Lidoderm patches. I have been putting them on the bottoms of my feet, but you mentioned that they should be placed elsewhere. Could you tell me where that is?
Thanks so much, Mary Jo Quote:
