    • Close Back Pain

      Well, I am a 27 yr old fmale. I had my first back surgery when I was 18, then a second one at 23, I had an artificial disk put in. Got addicted to pain meds, currently on Suboxone, and on treatment for hep c. have depression & anxiety.

      Treatments

      Bedrest Working / Worked
      sleeping is wonderful, but too much can make you really sore.
      Chiropractic Adjustment Working / Worked
      works well for me.
      Cortisone (Injection) Not Working
      Did not work, and also had a spinal fluid leak, which caused a migraine, took 2 visits to the ER to get rid of it.
      Darvon Not Working
      Not strong enough for me.
      Fentanyl Working / Worked
      Very strong, helped the pain, but was addicted.
      Heat Somewhat Helpful
      Heat feels great, but some meds i'm on make me sweat already.
      Hydrocodone Somewhat Helpful
      worked for a while, then became used to it, and needed something stronger.
      Ibuprofen Working / Worked
      Works, but if you take it too long it will tear your stomach up.
      Morphine Working / Worked
      I was never perscribed it, but I would go to the ER a lot to get shots of it, the shots seemed to help me more than anything.
      Naproxen Working / Worked
      works, but like Ibuprofen it will hurt you stomach ove a long period of time.
      Physical Therapy Working / Worked
      I had physical therapy many times, and manytimes I could not finish it case my back was too bad. But when I could, it helped emensly.
      Stretching Working / Worked
      Yes, have to stretch, or will be soo stiff.
      TENS Somewhat Helpful
      Relaxes my mucsles, so it helps a little, sometimes.
      Suboxone Working / Worked
      I got hooked on pain pills I was on hem for about 7 yrs.
