Hello there, thanks for your response. Yes matter of fact I'm at my pain management doctor now. They're sending me to have water therapy. They try not to prescribed too much opioid. But I will ask for atleast the next dosage up. I'm 48yrs old and have been dealing with this 13yrs. It worsens every year.

@moniesluv1974 I totally understand not overprescribing opioids and the current hysteria surrounding them, but when taking them responsibly they can add a great amount of quality of life that would make any kind of exercise or stretching more appealing. It is important to keep our aerobic and muscle strength as we age as once they are lost, they are hard to be regained. This will allow you to search for other ways to manage or heal so you are not dependent on opioids forever, if you are lucky. It did work for me. I understand everyone has to make their own choices and I support whatever yours might be.
