I'm glad to know that many have pain. I have hypertrophy in the top thigh on my right leg and severe degenerative disc L4-L5 & L5-S1 and moderate in L2-L3 with a possible pinched nerve. Tylenol is what I was told to take. I've been trying physiotherapy but haven't had much luck. Right now I can't even bear weight on my left leg without screaming.
I try to avoid Tylenol because it messes up my bowel and stomach so I'm at a loss and sometimes the pain is almost more than I can stand. I feel my life is over and I'm only 74

@normaprice2003 have you been to a pain doctor? I’ve been in major pain since 28 (chiropractic 3x a week every week to keep neck moving) when the damage started showing up from a bike accident at 15. Put my neck in a reverse loridosis so my neck prematurely aged. 4 neck surgeries 3 shoulder. Now have severe scoliosis, spondy, DDD in my back, 5 fused in neck. 70 years old. Can’t live without my pain doctor. Massage & in hot tub every morning.
There are drugs out there that will give you back your life but only a pain doctor can prescribe them.
