Hi everyone.....I haven't posted in a while. The good news....the Lyrica and Tramadol have held my PN in place. The bad news? I have horrific arthritis in my neck and lower back. Oh....also the tinnitus....but that isn't important. I have extreme muscle tightness in my neck....radiating down my arm. I've had several injections...but the reality is....I am going to have to go under the knife. That...doesn't even address.....the major nerve pain around the outside of my knee.....my lower back is also very arthritic. This is so crummy. I just retired and I was hoping to have a healthy retirement...but....I am so much in pain with the back and the neck.....I am ready to just give up.
