    • Close Back Pain

      I have suffered with chronic back pain for the past 3 years. I just recently decided that I am not going to settle with being in pain everday and finally decided to see a doctor about this. I have had only x-rays so far which showed nothing. I do PT 3 x's a week. So far all she does is deep tissue massage because my muscles are very tight and knotted and they refuse to relax. I am on Vicoden, skelaxin, and an antiflamatory along with a tens unit. All of this just seems to take the edge off.

    • Close Career Changes

      Currently working as an office assistant. I do a lot of crap jobs for people but have never complained. I work hard for the company but it is always unnoticed and unappreciated. I have put up with it for too long and would like to find something else.
