My husband's had a spinal fusion and a spinal cord stimulator (wonderful device) implanted but he still have pain in his lumbar. He's had chiropracty, osteopathy, electrofied acupuncture, watsu, every drug you can think of, physical therapy, trans-cutaneous nerve stimulation, pain relief patches (lido and fentynyl), electronic muscle stimulation, pool therapy, nitro paste, and I'm sure I missed a few. What are you all doing for your chronis back pain?

I would like to know if there are and Pain Management Doctors in Northern Colorado who use pharmaceutical medication in treatment? I have degenerative disc disease, as well as 3 herniated discs. I have tried accupucture, cortizone shots, muscle relaxers, and physical therapy. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If you would rather email me your reply, you can reach me at tannerdallas32@hushmail.com. thanks everyone.

I have a chronic back ailment and have lost my insurance after 6 years of treatment , mostly with medicine and physical therapy. I moved home to Louisiana after losing my inurance and going thru a divorce, finding myself with less money, alot of pain ,no help with the bills and doctors telling me to go to a pain clinic . The ones i have talked to so far are either too expensive (600 monthly) or insurance only.

I have chronic back pain, and my regular doctor is sending me to one, since physical therapy isn't working. (He doesn't like to prescribe narcotic pain medication more than once). So what can I expect at the Pain Clinic?

I was seeing an orthopedic because i have very bad pain in my back due to scoliosis in my back and neck and when muscle relaxers, physical therapy, and stretches were not helping he told me to make an app. with a pain management doctor. My mom goes to pain management so i made an app. with her doctor. What do you think he will do for me when i go? I already want a breast reduction, can he help me find a surgeon?
PS- Back surgery is not an option

I have severe pain in my lower back which travels into my legs .
I have taken MRI's which showed i do have arthritis . The doctors keep telling me that it is becuase of the arthritis that i have this pain in my legs. Could it be something else?.. and What can i do to eleviate the pain?
I have been taking Pain meds . I have taken everything and nothing really helps except of course Vicodens but they are addicting and i took them so long that even those are not helping so i stopped .. that was another problem and another story! ..but i have had 2 ,3series shots of epidurals ..i havebeen to physical therapy which is nioce but the pain returns as soon as i leave the office .. I am now searching for a good chiropractor ..

I had a botched back surgery 12 years ago. I have been seeing a pain management specialist for 10 years and I have an implanted pump with a catheter that delivers medication directly into my spine in the area of the nerves that are damaged. I have completely lost the ability to have a life and I know that I need physical therapy and physchological counseling but in the small town I live in they are not available and I can't drive myself back and forth from the closest city. Any one know of a place in Texas, Kansas, Arkansas, Tennesee, and other states close to these? These would be closest to home but I am willing to go anywhere necesssary. I need an inpatient program because I will be there alone. None of my family can rearrange things in order to be with me, but I need help now. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thank you all.

had a motorcycle accident last April - fractured wrist/leg/etc....developed premature arthritis from muscle tissue healing around fractures from accident and impact to body - my body has been working overtime using other parts to compensate for disabled parts - diagnoised with 40% loss of function in hand/wrist, since then, pain has been unbearable at times. Working with docs on pain meds - now on Naproxen twice a day and Percocet twice a day - it's working, but personally i'm concerned because it's the only way to function - would this be considered an addiction???? or a lifelong pain management step in a better direction. Without any meds, I can't move, stiff, sore, cry in pain - I'm 38 yrs old, was extremely active before the accident, work full time, one daughter, one husband, 3 acres of land to care for - full time all around care giver. Any suggestions or alternatives? or stick to what works for now????
went through intensive physical therapy, no improvement, have a counselor to handle the emotional strain. Saw a chiropractor (lots of smoke and mirrors for me - pain intensified after a few visits)
