I asked the Mod to eliminate my posts because when feeling chipper or any other time it sounds like whining when I read it.
But things seem a little worse now.
It appears all they will do is pain treatment.
Hydracorodone and two nerve pill, Lyrica and Cymbalta aren't doing much for extreme pains in my legs today. My back and neck and my arms and hands are in a contest to which hurts worse and legs are burning bad in addition. Middle toe on right foot feels like it is being sledge hammered. The others aren't much fun either.
Said I was going outside but wife's Dr appointments and alternating pain and sleeping and I just as soon die as worry with it. Wife is going to see if we can see somebody quickly, like yesterday, tomorrow. A Spine clinic seems like it would be the first choice but I don't know if there is one in Nashville or somewhere or not. Not one in Chattanooga. They may not help the Neuropathy but at least do something for the disc and associated things or whatever it is.
Hard to believe they feel like I'm not worth the trouble or that is how I feel about what is happening now. Been since July last year as the onset. Should have told Ft Wayne VA, that I was staying in area, for 6 mos or so and they would have fixed it then. Incredible that I'm so stupid or foolishly patient to let things go like this. I maybe get a shot Friday, I don't know. The way they do it with local only hurts every bit as much, to me, as getting shot. When that needle is in is terrible. When it hits the nerve in the back it is something else. Maybe within a few months things will be better. If not I probably will be dead. That is how bad it hurts. Probably not that drastic but the way it feels.
What have I done to upset these Folks. All I have been doing is fighting for my self.
