Something that i haven't really said in the last couple of times that i have blogged is that i don't only suffer from Chronic neck and back Pain, I also have many other problems and my doctor says that i am 'a doctors nightmare' because i have so many things going on that it is hard to know how to treat me..
So in my life this is what i suffer from besides the back and neck surgeries and bad doctor and all that I suffer from COPD, fibromyalgia, manic depression (usually anyone with chronic pain is diagnosed with depression), Hep. C, rhematoid and osteoarthritis, degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, sclerosis, fibrosis...this is really all i can think of off the top of my head..i have had 2 neck surgeries and 1 back surgery..i have 6 screws in my neck with titanium plate and in my lower back i have 8 screws with rods and the 2 of the screws in the lower back are loose and causing all kinds of hurt and pain that is unbearable..but i just wanted you all to know that i am not just complaining about a little back pain, and my doctor says he don't even know how to treat me with so many different things going on. and you can't go see to many doctors cuz then they say you are doctor shopping when you get any meds from more than 1 doctor..It's a pretty sad situation..but i am trying to deal with it daily..God Bless YOu ALL
