@carol1024 Funny you mentioned the nerves and such. If that is the case in 2025. I have had L1-L2-L3-L4 blown in my lower back and C2 in my neck "To date are still herniated" with no surgery in the future. At the ending of 2025 I have in a two week period have had UTI in my kidney and they seen I had a stone in there. I have had an infection in my left ankle that they can't do anything about right now and it has gone from a small hole to the size of my thumb. My right ankle is going through hell due to the doctor telling me that it sounds like Neuropathy but they can not pinpoint it fursure. I have been hospitalized for my kidney twice in the last two weeks and still nothing for both my ankles but guess work. Oww and then that stone they seen in an X-ray wanted to put me even more hell and took a week to pass and I wish that on no one to go through. Yet the pain I am in on a daily basis would put a normal person on their knees and I don't take any medication for any of it. If it doesn't work why take it. I will try the medicine they give me but why again if you are still in pain take a pill that has no effect on you? Just like blood pressure medicine. I am on an average 205 and higher every single day and the medicine they want me to take is either to much or not enough and I at times will either wake up not knowing what happened or I get very sick and then the last thing they found and again in the last two weeks of 2025 was a blood clot in my right leg to which I can not take any blood thinners for due to the fact that my blood pressure is on an average of being 205/155 so I am waiting on them to schedule to receive a stint before it's too late. So 2025 has been one hell of an ending for me. I for one won't miss anything of that year. Just pray that they will be able to get some sort of an understanding of what I am going through and hopefully get this shit figured out so 2026 will be a better year for us all.

@dinosoke I wouldn't take medicine that didn't work either. If you don't take pain medicine when you have pain then that's your choice. I have to. Even though there is still some pain there, I can only wonder just how bad it would be if I took nothing for pain. I'm thinking a lot worse. Nothing is going to take the pain away 100% unless you are in hospital for something stronger. I have done that too. Spent a weekend getting IV pain meds for pain and spasms in both legs. I could hardly walk. EMS came and took me to hospital. Pain is awful and as long as there is something available for it, I'm taking it. I've heard that some cancer pain is horrible too but I'm praying that's not true in my case. Bone pain I experience is way worse than my back pain has ever been but I would never consider not taking something for it. Again, nothing takes it completely away but I'm sure I'd be screaming if I took nothing. I guess you can say the pain meds take the edge off and make it more tolerable. It does in my case. 😊
