@heisenberg34 I am allergic to Morphine & even have a tolerance for Dilaudid. Yes, think it will be taped to my back. I have had very severe pain for 25 plus years. I don't no about you, but there isn't much i can do with all the hardware. No more prolonged walking, both shoulders are bad. There are a lot of pain docs around here. Can u try someone else? Guess that they get immune, & don't want to deal with us?? I don't know.. I am worried that it won't help me. I haven't done much of anything for 20 plus years. I also have a permanent subpubic catheter & get constant multi drug induced infections. I am running out of antibiotics & in & out of the hospital for the infections etc. No fun, per say It's really hard, especially being single Are you married? many friends.?.. I don't fine most people too accepting of my limitations. I've become quite isolated. Also, can't hold my head up

@laurenseavertson789 Try to have a positive attitude. You are made in the image of God. That’s no small thing. This upcoming trial may be just what you need. I am married to a wonderful gal (34 years and counting), so I am blessed that way. I will pray that your trial goes well. Private message me a couple of days into your trial. Please.

@laurenseavertson789 Hi Lauren, I’ve been quietly following you, Chris, and Archie for a little bit. I’ve just started my journey to try and get an intrathecal pain pump. I’m married to a wonderful man who takes great care of me but I’m home alone all day M-F while he’s at work. I don’t have any family near by and no friends. Just two little dogs who keep me company. I never leave the house because just getting up to go to the bathroom is so painful. I’ve had horrible thoracic and lumbar pain for eight years. I’ve tried every possible way to try and get some relief from pain but the only thing that helps somewhat is oral Oxycodone-Acetaminophen 10-325. Even then it seems to only take the edge off my pain to keep me from crying. I have an upcoming appointment for more thoracic facet joint injections but the rest of my spine hurts so much it’s kinda like slapping a bandaid on a hemorrhage. Some days it gets really hard to deal with. Anyway, I hope your trial goes really well. I just wanted to say hello.
