HI all this is my first post to this site as well
Janine was gracious enough to contact me and reinvite me as I did not respond to her initial post to me.
 
My pian levels have been very high as of late. I also have been having trouble with my eyesite. In my quest for relief I have tried Chinese Herbs, Acupuncture (which has given me immediate releif a couple of hours or so) Chiropractor (which kills me for about 2 days  physically mentally and emotionally, My wife wants me to countinue to go to chiropractor as she feels it will help.) I have not been able to find anything that has helped for any more then a couple of hours, other then a steady diet of meds the Dr.s have given me which make it almost impossible to function. As I sit here and type this I am still trying to decide if I want to go to my Dr.s Appt. today in 2 hrs they are going to give me the Intercostal nerve blocks today.
I am just so frustrated that all anyone can do is mask the pain in some way or another.
The nerve blocks I understand have worked for some and not for others .
Yesterday my 4yr old son comes to crying in frustration and can hardly talk I finallay got him calmed down enough to understand him. He looks me in the eyes and says "Daddy I love you but I Hate it that you work so hard that your back hurts too much to play with me that is what I hate."
I am a resaurant manager my job is not all that physically demanding. Although I can not stand, Sit, or do much of anythingn for any length of time.
I work 4 days a week 3 of which are dbls open to close. most days by the end of the day I cannot even focus long or hard enough to do my paper work.
OOPS SORRY I have rambled
DO I TRY THE NERVE BLOCKS TODAY?
that was what my question was.
