Guest guest Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Hi, Just wondering what everyone does for pain relief. I think I have tried everything and am to the point where it just needs to be controlled (well somewhat) with medications. I've had spine surgery, 3-4 rounds of PT, including the LifeBack program, many, many injections (ESI, facet joint, SI Joint), chiropractor treatment,tried a spinal cord stimulator, TENS Unit and many medications. The Lyrica really does help with the Fibromyalgia and I'm very grateful for that. I've also tried massage but as soon as it's done I get this intense burning/aching, so I'm going to wait awhile befoe trying that again. Any ideas would be great! Hope for a pain free day!! Take care, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Hi again ; Are you up this late? I usually sleep days and I'm up nights. For a quick fix, if you have a point at your back or neck especially giving you problems, I also use a Themal Heat pad at my L5-S1. Believe it or not, it helps for a few hours!
