I am a 50 year old man. They have told me it could be this it could be that. That isnt what someone wants to hear that hurts so bad all the time.Iwas fired for my last job as a general manager for a large trucking company because i was unable to perform my job anymore.So 105.000 dollars a year down to unimployment . boy that realy helps stress. That was 10 years ago and my pain continues to get worse. Around december 15 I started hurting and its got worse and worse. Now its feb 4 th of 09 .I have got to a point where im in a wheelchair about half the time and the pain in my face ,neck lower back,legs,feet,arms,hands hurts so bad i spend half the day crying and as a man thats just something i would not do.I spend all day in bed now and just get up to go to the bathroom now my eyes are even giving me problems {vision comes and goes}.Im on ULTRAM 200mg ER, LORATAB #10.5 twice a day LYRICA 150mg 3 times a day and thats not working any more. Im going to see a doctors at K U ned center in wichita kansas.I herd that they can do some kind of spinal block yes its scary but what do you do you can only take so much and for thoses of you that are going through a lot of pain understand.
