Hi Em
I'm glad things are improving for you - that has to be a good thing.
Yes - I am much better than I was last year - today I was at the pain clinic where I am treated well - they have given me some different ointment for the arthritis in my shoulder - people use it for post hepatic pain - now they are trying it for people with arthritic pain - so far so good.
I know there are people who feel they will try anything for pain relief - I have been though it for a long time and I still research the internet - there are many things I would not do - that's true.
I remember that you had a spinal fusion - I am hoping that was helpful -
Sweet thoughts

Thanks @Faith-and-Hope 💝
Yes @Owlunar2 I totally get it, the search of relief for severe constant pain. It is exhausting and really gets you down. I am sorry you are still searching.
I feel so fortunate in that yes, my double (3 level) spinal fusion has been a success. Of course its not perfect and I still experience some pain. But it is mild, certainly not severe as it had been. And I no longer need any of the heavy duty pain relief or nerve pain medications. Just some occasional anti inflams or paracetamol is enough. I have my life back and I am very grateful. Many go through these surgeries with little or limited improvement, and often regret it. But I dont. 😊
