    • Close Chronic Pain

      I start 5 years ago chasing a pain under my left shoulder blade. pills, excersice - nothing - p;ills, injections and PT - nothing now I find out i have Cervical stenosis and then some

      Treatments

      Flexeril Working / Worked
      This works good easing the tension that builds up from my constant bracing and is much cheaper than a daily massage.
      Hydrocodone Somewhat Helpful
      Works enough that i dont fee like ripping my spine out
      Meditation Somewhat Helpful
      the pain can be light and it really helps if the pain is heavy it brings it down to a managable level. just hard to find time to do this when i am at work.
      Nerve Blocks Working / Worked
      this works great but for the cost the effect is short lived but you will get a few good weeks.
      Physical Therapy Not Working
      I had doubts about PT for cervical stenoiss - all it did for me was hurt.
      TENS Working / Worked
      this is a great release for short term benefits but works best if i know i have to be up cleaning.
      Crying Working / Worked
      driving to work my pain become unbareable, i called my mom and cryed all the way to work, when i arrived i felt releif some from the pain but mostly holding in the hurt caused additional pain.
