It is so good you got yourself off the meds. Have you tried a pain rehabilitation program? A friend of mine went through Mayo's three-week program and increased his quality of life quite a bit, enabling him to even travel etc. It is worth trying this if your insurance covers it. Mayo has a 2-day program also (though if it was possible, I'd sure prefer the 3-week one).

Thanks. I am currently in PT. It has been 4 months and I am no better. They are working under the concept of central sensitivity. I am ready to stop going. Mayo has a video about central sensitivity but do not know any more about it. I live in Ohio and do not have money for overnight accomidations. Not sure where to turn or to just take a break from every treatment.

The Cleveland Clinic has a pain rehabilitation program too. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/departments/neurological/depts/neurological-restoration/chronic-pain-rehab-program Maybe you need a combination of approaches?
