What Distracts You From the Pain?

Yes, I understand you. I just saw a pain dr, my GP, a phychologist and my gastrologist for my terrible pain, which originates from bone spurs and arthritis
in my neck. The surgeons do not want to touch it, so they all tell me, live with it and take opioids. They help, but they have so many negative sides.
Make me tired all day, no appetit, no interest in friends and family any more and there is no one to help me to get off them. Wean yourself off slowly or sign yourself into a clinic for 39,000.00 for four weeks.
I have been living with my pain in the head now for years. Now I have digestion pain, caused by constipation. Been to the ER several times, when I got scarred, because it also effected my heart.
So I can feel for you very much!
But my husband and I will not give up. This is no way to live, if there must be a way to treat this pain!

I'm not sure how it would work with paint on your head but I got a pain pump and a catheter up my spine and now I get by on 3 mg of Dilaudid a day instead of the 250 2 mg of assorted opiates I was taking before the pain pump. I still have pain but it's quite manageable.
