Hello, I am glad to have found this place. I have had chronic pain for over a year now, and I am trying to figure out how to deal with it.

I was in an accident about 3 years ago, and then recently diagnosed with suboccipital neuragia, from which I have pretty much a constant searing headache.

I am in PT again, and seeing an accupuncturist, which seems to be helping. My pain got much worse this summer, and now that I am teaching again, it is very hard for me to deal with working full time, and being in pain just about full time.

I take several meds, but they go in and out of working. I am in a week where they seem not to be working again, which is very difficult for work especially. I love the kids I teach, but the state of my nerves causes me to be very sensitive to light and noise among other things.

I just want this not to effect my life and relationships as much as I feel like it is, and I am hoping some of you might have some advice.


Thanks!

Good Afternoon:
 
It is a most unusual condition you have, one I have never heard of of I wish you the best. Perhaps alternating meds is the best solution so your condition doesn't get used to one med and then get immune to it.
 
Best wishes,
 
Raymond.
