      Treatments

      Hydrocodone Somewhat Helpful
      Didn't like it. Made me hallucinate
      Ibuprofen Somewhat Helpful
      Helps with the pain but not totally sucessful.
      Physical Therapy Not Working
      Mostly heat and e-stem. Feels good when there but doesn't last.
      Memory Foam Mattress Working / Worked
      Helps me relax for about 4 hours.
