Hi. My name is Dianna. I found out 6 years ago I have AA. Well, try and explain this one to your friends. I found a wonderful a wonderful doctor on HHI. I live in South Carolina. The doctor I found has allowed me to treat my pain with the meds he can issue. I am on medical marijuana, Amitriptyline, and hydrocodone. This man has saved my life. Without his help, I cannot imagine how I would feel. I had an MRI about 3 months ago, and unfortunately the nerves have already started to “clump together “. Not something I am looking forward to, but right now, there is not a cure for this disease. I wish you well, and should you be in the area (Hilton Head SC) I’m sure you could become a patient of his.
