Have had back problems the last few years stemming from a sports injury. It has progressively gotten worse and I have tried everything including PT, exercises to concentrate only on the back, etc. Keep seeing these and been thinking about going to one to see if I can get any help. What are they like? Any bad experiences?
Solid post. I went to a pain management clinic in Florida. Basically a pill mill for people seeking meds. The "doctor" wrote me a script for 100 roxys without examining my injury. Had trouble finding a pharmacy that would fill it because of the demand. Like Loomis said the shit will consume your soul.
This is a terrible post. My back injury was so painful that I could simply not function in a daily capacity without it. Not all of us are drug addicts and not everyone gets addicted to pain meds. Some use it responsibly until your injury is taken care of.
Parlays, feel free to PM me. Been through it all to include meds, therapy, pain management, PT and surgery.
Uh no. I had an MRI and they knew it was a herniated disc from the get go. When you have a back injury, you don't just jump to surgery. You try PT while using your meds to control the pain. You try steroid injections and lots of rest. If all this fails and the pain is unmanageable, surgery is a last resort.
Have you suffered a serious back injury? It's one of the worst things possible.
