Does anyone have DISH and/or OPLL?

I see pain management. I get many injections throughout the year. Currently they are separate doing injections in my back and rotating the types of injections and also just started injections in my shoulders this year. I also get massages every three weeks- they help with blood flow and relaxing muscles. I was seeing my massage therapist long before I was ever diagnosed with dish but I believe I have had it for a very long time. I’m in my mid-50s and when I was in my late 20s early 30s I had bone spurs in the back and bottom of both feet.
My suggestion is to keep moving as much as possible. But you’ll find out if you do too much it hurts a lot more. So it’s like life, balance is important. Everyone is different and you will find what best suits you. I also see rheumatology once a year. Keep reading as much as you can.

Thank you for the information. I will try to get my insurance on board to help pay for some of these things. My rheumatologist says DISH isn't a problem they take care of.
