As a chronic pain sufferer myself, being diagnosed with a herniated disc in my lower back, with bone disc degenerative disease, I have learned a lot about how chronic is treated, or I should say, undertreated. It's a sad fact for whatever reason, that chronic pain goes grossly undertreated, and too many people are needlessly suffering in pain. After years and years of of my pain going undertreated, I have learned a few things that I would like to share.
First of all, there seems to be a stigma when it comes to people seeking treatment from the medical community for chronic pain. Physicians are hesitant about what kind of treatment is best, especially when it comes to treating pain with narcotic medications.
In a lot of cases, treatment for chronic pain can be eleviated by physical therapy, biofeedback tactics, exercise, steroids, muscle relaxers, anti-inflammatory meds, to moderate use of over the counter pain medications, without ever having to use narcotic medication. Any of these methods can be used together, separate, or in combination with great results.
After trying everything I just stated, with no great positive results, I was refered by my doctor to a pain management specialist. My first reaction to my pain was that I had to have surgery. Having lower back surgery was not an option for me, for so many people have had failed back surgery, complications, other major problems, and having to have yet another back surgery. This to me seemed unecessary, and just more pain and loss of physical mobility.
After telling my pain management Physician I didn't want to have lower back surgery, he put me on a short term, low dose of hydrocodone. I was prescribed this with no relief for 3 months. After telling the physician this low dose did not help my pain, and that I needed a stronger dose, he took me off of it, and told me again he recommended surgery, and there's nothing more he could do. At this point, I felt helpless, hopeless, and feeling I wasn't believed about my pain.
After tying other Physicians, with the same result, and out of desperation, I tried using an online pharmacy. To my suprise, It was the best thing I've done to treat my pain. Finally I found Physicians who understood my pain, and was sympathetic to my pain. People who like me, who dont want to have surgery, and take the risk of great complications, or those who have already had surgery, and are still in pain, or people who suffer from Fibromyalgia, Joint Pain, other Back Pain, Lupus, Arthritus, or any other medical condition that causes you pain, can now get the relief they need online.
People who are truly chronic pain sufferers, and have a diagnosis of a medical condition, can legally obtain strong pain medication online. As long as you have medical records and an identification, you can get the meds you need online to live a better pain free life, which to me equals a better quality of life. I hope this will help the thousands of people who are needlessly suffering from chronic pain. I have a website dedicated to helping others who suffer from chronic pain.
This article is not to replace any advice or treatment from you Physician. This article simply is to inform people who suffer with pain they have an alternative in treating their pain.
