I'm Jim, 75 yrs. I was a beekeeper for 37 years and did a lot of lifting. I hurt my lower back 3 times. The 4th time was 10 years ago and it's never stopped hurting. I have had a laminectomy, stem cells, 15 epidurals, many doctors with no answers or relief. MRI and Xray show a perfect spine, hips etc. Chiropractors, massage therapists, accupucture, help temporarily. The only real help has been 4 years of physical therapy and 35 mg of Percocet/day. I have self diagnosed this as Central Sensitization (CSS). It's 24/7 pain/exhaustion. I just don't know where to turn anymore. The narcotic comes with it's own issues, but has allowed me to have something of a life. CSS seems to be the only logical explanation????
