Guest guest Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 Just a venting post. I'm in so much pain I can't tolerate it. Just to recap: I have a C5/6 herniation and one above and below lesser herniation. I'm seeing a surgeon and he's going to determine if surgery will actually help me. I'm just at my wits end! The neck pain, the headaches, the nausea from the pain and headaches. 2 more weeks til I see the surgeon to determine surgery. I called my pain management doctor on Friday and on steroids again but seeing no relief in sight. I'm tired of taking so many pills. I think I need an ice pack permanently attached to my neck. I can't even make it through a full day at work... but I have to. And my paperwork is still going through to make me a permanent employee here so I might even have to wait longer for surgery so I can get disability. Ugh! This is so unbearable. It's affecting me in so many ways… my mood and my motivation are shot. I'm in school full time, I work full time… how do I remain normal when I'm in so much pain. I'm sorry to be such a downer but I know so many of you understand. This is just killing me in every way possible. No more good days only bad and worse. Amy F.
