I really just have a comment to you, I have read so many post on here, about DDD and ruptured disc...how so many people suffer from chronic pain. I had a doctor to tell me last week that even tho I had spinal fusion w/plates on C4 thru C7 and L5, L4, S1 are ruptured and I DDD in them, that it does not cause pain, I need to see a shrink for my pain, cause it was in my head. I will be in a wheel chair within weeks due to the pain. I ware a diaper 24/7 cause I can't control my bladder. I also am going to visit a pain management center tomorrow. If you would have talked to me a week ago, I had high hopes, couldn't wait to go to the pain center, now I feel like I have lost my hope, or my will I guess. Some people get lucky to find the right Dr. I on the other had has not been so lucky. They will say OMG u have this and that wrong with u, no wonder u can't walk, there's nothing I can do for u, BYE, BYE...My family doc did give me peracets for 4 months, now she can no longer give them to me, cause her malpractice insurance will double if she write narcotic scripts for over 6 months to her patients. I sit up all night dreading to go to bed, cause I know in the morning will be another 9 pain level until I can get some meds in me to atleast make the pain a 7 or 8. So all I do is sit and think about everything, I did blame the doctors for being so uncaring and heartless, but now I blame other people, I blame the "pill heads" "crack heads" or who ever goes into a doctors office pretending to be in all this pain just to get high. People that has no shame, no pride that can go and put on a show to get scripts for nothing but getting themselves stoned. So now I don't feel anger toward doctors anymore. You, me and hundreds of other people has to suffer until we find that right doctor that will say she has so much proof, with MRI's and did all the injections tried everything to help her, that didn't help any, epiduril made me worse for about a week. Please write me about what happen at ur appointment tomorrow, my appointment is a 10:30 in the morning, I will do the same....Sorry this was so long, sometimes, I throw myself a pity parties, and brought you in it.  Good luck...pwb
