So sorry you are going through so much pain, believe me I know pain can be a real pain in the a$$. Can’t sleep at night, end up so tired I sleep during the day then can’t sleep at night a terrible cycle. Lucky I’m retired. Had to go out on disability in 2011 after my AKA on left leg. Then just never went back, because I was old enough and had the time to retire from the state. I know what you mean mad at the pain, but try to do what you can to stay as active as you can. Keep your mind on something else if you can. You are probably saying to yourself what I say when someone tells me the same thing, that’s easy for you to say. I hope and pray you can find some peace and painless time soon. There’s so many things I can’t do like I used to so I just try to do what I can when I’m able. I am in a wheelchair now, I can walk a little with a rollator walker but not much and just inside. Having trouble with my socket on my prosthesis, supposed to get a new one this coming week, so hope it helps. Have you tried a pain clinic, I’m sure you have having had epidurals . Mine didn’t help either, but there’s a new Dr. there so I’m going to try one last time with the injections. And that’s it. I had my stimulator removed because the one they put in I couldn’t have MRIs. They got insurance to cover the removal. Take care and I hope you can find some relief soon. I know it wears on you. God bless you and give you peace.
