Hi there. I suffer from degenerative Disc disease and have had 11 level fused, on pain meds as well as a pain pump from my pain managent doctor. I live with chronic fibromyalgia as we which causes GI issues and all over widespread body pain. I am more active than I used to be as long as I take advantage of resting throughout the day/eve. Its not a life I with upon anyone as my pain goes from.a 5-8 throughout the day. Im limited with what I can accomplish but have a very supportive husband and son that assist where needed.
