Staggering pain where brain stem meets spinal cord

It doesn't make sense. It radiates out from there to front of face and also shoulders and down to tailbone. My injuries were mostly Acquired brain injuries and the one concussion didn't hurt my neck or spine at all. I've been offered oxycodone but i said no. already on high dose of Neurontin.

I'm so sorry you are experiencing this, Mark. I wish I had some answers but I'll add a prayer for you in my prayer box ;) Hope you have a good evening.

Have you had an mri of this area?? My spinal cord is compromised in that area, and I get that excruciating pain. Have you had your atlas adjusted??

MRI came back negative. My PT is addressing the issue, but it has not been resolved yet.
