Cervical nerve impingement increasing drammatically

Hello Alfred, so sorry you are dealing with such pain. I would suggest going to the ER as it sounds like things changed rather quickly and very debilitating. If your doctor isn't listening to you, there is another one out there that will. I would address this sooner rather than later. Best wishes.

Hi dhansen78,

thank you for your understanding.

I am not in the US but in the AUS. Hospitals here are understaffed, full of people on waiting lists and they only thing you can get here if you go to ER a good morphine injection to stabilize you for the night, then they discharge you the next day. It is their protocol. They won't investigate further. You can only get better assistance from private hospitals but you need private health insurance. I joined last December but I have to wait 12 months to qualify for services, the so called waiting period.
