My doctor changed me to every 2 days and it’s been a game changer. I too have Osteoarthritis, chronic back pain from L4/5 fusion and nerve damage in my right foot and leg that has had me screaming in pain. My neck is awful was going to have (surgery to “clean it up “ but my Breast Cancer and the surgeries took precedence. Doc put implants in wrong and pulled them off my muscles which I still get a terrible muscle spasms in.
I’ve been a terrible doctor picker, really I was limited by insurance where I could go. I had bilateral knee replacements at the same time and recovery was months and needed a cane for over 2 years. My left knee was so unstable and I found a great doctor who said he could fix it and he did! But I still get terrible pain that wakes me up. I take plenty of meds to live and I’ve tried everything, chiropractor he helps my neck, cupping, acupuncture, wellness clinics, diet.
So every 48 hours helped greatly because I was always on the couch or bed on day 3. I never knew a body could hurt like this. This is just the highlights. Good luck and May God Bless you.
