I have 3 disc's in my lower back rubbing in my nerve and a syrinx in my upper back and have been fighting insurance for over 4 years now. taken my life away. I am slowly going down hill, my brain feels fuzzy and I have no energy anymore. Dr's say I will be like this for rest of life and will never work again, it is killing me.

    • I’m With You

      From joanieg2006 Monday

      I had a back injury in April of 1999. As a result of my back injury, I had
      5 back surgeries, one of them a spinal fusion in June of 2001, and I have
      been fighting with worker's comp ever since! They suck big time!! They are
      the worse insurance company I have ever had to deal with! The best advice
      that I can give you is to never, ever give up on your health especially your
      back pain! I still have pain all these years even though I had five back
      surgeries! If your insurance company doesn't pay for your medical bills,
      you can sue them for medical negligence, but, you may need a really
      good attorney to help you!

      Lots of luck to you! I hope you get some pain relief soon! I'm with you, Baz!
      I hope you feel better soon! You can send me an email anytime if you
      feel like venting about your back problems! I'm in the same boat your are!

      Sincerely,
      joanieg
