Pain is getting worse and may have to give up job

[Guest guest]

Hi, just signed up here.  I've not been in a support group for a long time.

 

I've had pain for 16 years but it seems to be getting worse.  I'm very concerned

that I may have to give up my part-time job and not sure I can manage

financially without it. 

 

I have low back and nerve pain in both legs from a herniated disc and disc

bulges.  There is really no corrective procedure that can be done unless it

progresses in to something else. 

 

I have lots of medications but they are as dibilitating as the pain.  I'm having

more difficulty being on my feet than ever.  I've managed well for a long time

but all of this is causing fatique, anxiety and depression.
