I was born with scoliosis (adopted). I fell about 15 yrs ago & fractured my left clavicle. Broke right wrist in 1996 % developed RSD/now called CRPS. I did hand therapy, pain help, neurologist & therapy.

I fell on my face in street last 3/17. Since then, l slowly see my neck, shoulder & back issues get worse.

I am on Effexor 150 mgs, Oxycodone 325 mg 2x a day, Diazapam 10 mg, Mirtazazapine 30 mg, Metoprolol 50mg, Dilt-xr 180 mg, Melatonin 20-40 mg a day.

I feel tired all the time & doctors say it’s normal, but l feel pain every day. I do PT exercise at home & walk approx 6-8 miles a week. I meditate 2x or more a day. Limit cell time on social media/off by 9pm. My social life suffers. Damned if l do, damned if l don't.

Have trouble sleeping. Any running out of what to do.
