3 surgerys and still in pain after 10 years
 

i ws involved in 2 auto accidents and finally a third work related addident, i was partially buryed by a heave large clump of clay my boss dug up with a backhoe
it rolled onto my neck and head pinning me into a hole for several minutes untill fellow workers saw my legs flayling and came to my rescue .

a few days later i experianced a sever pain in my neck that took me to my knees
after being seen by my family prctisioner and the er, a nero examined me and found i had blowen a disc at c-5-c-6 and he did fusion, 3 monts later i became one of the 20% that the fusion caused additional problems at c-6 and c-7 4 days later still in severe pain they went into the back and removed bone spurs they found there, now i am a canadate for fusion at c4- c5 and work comp says its not related to the origional accident, they say its my 55 year old body, degeerative bone desease
and have been unable to work for 2 years as no one will hire me with my problem, from day one i have never been with out pain. now i am being penalized because i kept working in my electrical field because my nero said i could go back to work with no restrictions.

I am so sorry to hear that you are having such a hard time. I know what it feels like myself to be in pain and desperatly want help and want something done to fix it or make it better. I myself have a spine injury that was caused by an injury at work and have not worked in 10 years becuase of it. And I have gone every day since in pain.
Please know there are many other out there in simular situation as you, and are here to help in anyway we can.

Hang in there, if you need anything just let me know.
