Yep too much damage . Thirty two years machine operator at paper mill , graveyard to days to swing three back injuries , jitney knocking me off platform etc. Couldn't walk for nine months. Worked through the pain fairly well with back surgery . Opioids, massage therapy , twice a week , steroid injections to the maximum amount allowed , Boston scientific nero stimulator implanted 2005 and replaced 2015 , attached to thorax . Unfortunately the stimulator has become painful itself as the contractions of the muscles and damaged tissue is painful . Built five homes , carpenter framer all finish work , mantels , tile and wood floors , pex certified with Dekow plumbing. But fell fourteen feet and split L-2 severely cracking L-3-4 Doc. Held up his thumb and said that the break is the size of his thumb .I Wright music and have a small studio I played in a band for many years but now I just can't concentrate or overcome the pain. When I stand I have about three minutes before my leg fills with blood and the pressure would blow your mind , mine sorry . Leland . P.S. I have heard that the pain pump will cause you to become very lethargic and without ambition or spark . I never have abused the opiates was on 6- 80mg oxicontine now just 4-10 mg , of course doesn't help but never have been short since 1996 .. rip thanks for listening ......, afraid to stand but need to get out scuba diving again because I'm the only one left alive that knows where the abalone are especially the ones we planted in the 70s I'm the only one here that knows where their is an abundance of weathervein sea scallops . But I'm useless now , we enjoy and dearly love our seven granddaughters I don't like them to see me in agony and I can't stand missing them either .
