Nice to meet you. So you had fusions too. They are not fun. I know my heart will heal. I have a stent in my heart now and it's scary. Trying to quit smoking. If I didn't have aniexty about all the pain and thinking about my heart. I could quit. I tried the gum, the patch and the pill. They all make me so sick. I'm going to go cold turkey. I guess that's the way I have to go. Hope to here from you soon. Be Sweet Peach

I’m With You
Hello I'm new to DS and would like to talk to people that have had spinal fusions. I've had 2. My 2nd one was done on Oct 22 08 and two weeks later I had a massive heart attack. I hope you are doing well. Be Sweet, Peach

Close Back Pain
Treatments
- Heat Somewhat Helpful
- the heat makes blood rush to the heated area and in turn helps loosen and relax that area
- Relaxation Somewhat Helpful
- deep breathing is comforting as well all muscles need oxygen and this can be very hard to come by when a person is in pain. Our breathing becomes shallow and in turn doesn't allow our muscles enough oxygen to work for us
- Stretching Somewhat Helpful
- it is helpful to not let your muscles tighten and remain that way for a long time. This can lead to further pain and medical problems
Close Rheumatoid Arthritis
Treatments
- Pain Management Clinic Somewhat Helpful
- relaxation is helpful to refocus and regroup
