About Me

Was diagnosed with spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, osteoarthritis, high blood pressure, high cholesterol in 1996. Developed neuropathy in both feet about 5 years ago .. after taking statins for over 20 years have muscle and nerve damage to legs. Doctor won\'t prescribe any pain meds. Get 3 hours of sleep at most. Got Clostridium-difficile in November 2015 at the doctors office after I was given an anit-biotic for a wound that wasn\'t healing. Have been on anti-biotics since then fighting the c-diff (a very infectious disease). I am 67 and in constant pain during the day and even worse when I lay down and try to sleep. Vicodin, Tramadol and Meloxicam don\'t help with pain. Vallium helps with muscle spasms in my neck but doctor won\'t prescribe any more due to my age. My family lives 1800 miles away so I have no support other than my adult son who I live with.
