Hi everyone, any comments would be interesting and greatly appreciated.
I was in a rear end low impact collision back in Dec 2007, I was seriously injured.
I had gone through plenty of therapy sessions with Physical Therapists,have taken all these drugs, Anti-Flamatory,Pain Killers,Muscle Relaxers,Anti-Depressants with no avail.
I had several x-rays,mri's,and trigger Point Injections to finally agree with my Orthopedic Surgeon to do Rotator Cuff surgery, He did,t find a tear but found that I had bone spurs pinching my nerves in my shoulder,so he cleaned out my brusitus,sanded down the area and finished the surgert.
Three months,six months and 20 visits tophysical Therapy after surgery I was still in agonizing pain, he reffered me to a PCP to treat Chronic Pain Syndrome. After working up to Fentanyl Patch he gave up and sent me to a Anithesiologist, he gave me 20 trigger point injections and said there was nothing he could do for me.
I found a PAIN Doc and after two visits and 3 and a half hours of MRI's, he diagnosed me with Degenerative Disc Disease,Brositus and fluid in my shoulder,arthoritus in my back and neck. Now tomorrow I am going in for a temporary nerve block that should relieve my pain for a year?? hmmmm.. Finally, but only a year??
I am 29 and also have Bi-Polar Disorder and am in the process of filing for Disability through the government
Any comments,thoughts??
