I have my maxed amount of epidural shots of my cervical DDD....(and no one cares about my lumbar DDD)..... I've done physical therapy, muscle relaxers, Amitriptyline, Nortryptiline, desipramine.....narcotics... So I decided to go to a spine specialist and they have me on Gabapentin. Its been two weeks and it did nothing for my lumbar ever... but it did seem to help my cervical and arm/hand pain...
I loose like 2-400 a night when i go to the casino so it is not good playing in real life, mind you i won alot aswell but that besides the point. If you love poker and dont want to gamble online download the score poker and play that it is a strictly free play money poker and you cant put money on if you wanted to. It is an awesome site aswell. Try it thats what i do i play for play money to help me stop spending money on poker.
Now dont think you can play in real life and win cause if you are that good you would be scouted off the net to play in the world series of poker. So real life is more stressfull then online i find cause it drives me nuts watching my money leave and there are thousands in front of your eyes and you cant have.
Dont let it overcome you girl. So please dont waist you live on poker. Stay in school your obviously smart if your in university. Do the right thing.
But what i do now is i play the play money on Poker Stars that is what helps me i play holdem and the 5 card draw there it is really fun for play money aswell it is more like a game and not a need or want for more money it makes you respect it as a game for fun and not just a look for more money... Goodluck
