Yes I do feel so much anger. Medical profession will not address it so it's called failed back surgery. I have TRIED to called Senator's, Congressmen but will not speak with me because I do not live in their state!!! People are suffering and no one cares. You are all making me cry because you care and ask the right questions. I have a wonderful P.M. Dr. He was not well versed with AA but he learned and researched. I have a pain Pump it works but I am getting a bit worse so when I see him we will talk about whats next as far as medication in the pump. the pump is working 24 hrs a day but I have a remote control use it but only four 7 times a day. I have used Yelp to share my experience naming the 1st surgeon 2008. I can't deal with it much. Husband works, alone a lot of the time. I had hopes of traveling, having fun so much more. White Coats took it from me. I wish I could pass a law, Patients MUST be told of the dangerous side effects in writing. To do that a bill must be past. Medical Community is very strong. I told someone I want to die but Iam also scared. I will be leaving my body to sicence so maybe it will help others. I wish I could Volunteer in a hospital or absurd children. I can't drive, sit, stand, bend for long. Thank you, Becky

I can't believe I wrote absurd children. I meant abused!! I love kids!

@kimspr3 I can understand your anger, but it doesn’t help you. Is there someone you can talk to? Your minister? A therapist? Support group? Can you look around? It would certainly be helpful. You also mentioned wanting to volunteer. Have you checked with your local hospital? Or day care centers? I know you don’t drive, but many towns have ride services for those who can’t drive. Good way to get to a volunteer job!
Or maybe you can research assistance for the disabled. Will you try some of these suggestions? We really care about you
