I understand your pain and frustration completely. I'm also experiencing chronic pain that no doctor can address, which has been about 10 top surgeons in NY. Started with TLIFT Was on hydromorphone for years, tried all available biologics, PT and medical massages. Nothing has helped. Doctors say either a complete spinal fusion, SCS or nothing at all. No guarantee on outcomes. Currently trying LDN, Celebrex and arthritis strength Tylenol. Feel like I'm 90 but only 70. The frustration and depression is overwhelming at times. Hang in there. My mantra is 'things can always be worse'

@lchop tried Celebrex. Keep an eye on kidney function. I had to stop because mine got whacked. Best of luck finding a solution.
