Hey Everyone

[DL.]

Glad I found this place! Hopefully it works out for me. I've been dealing with lower back pain and joint pain for 4 years now...which also means I've been dealing with a handful of clueless doctors for about as long. Nobody has an answer for me. Being in pain every day of my life is frustrating enough...seeing countless "specialists" without any kind of a solution is even worse. Anyway...my hookup has been cut off, which means I am too. So here I am.

Any advice for figuring out all the code words everyone is throwing around?

My advice would be to read and read and read some more. I also am in incredible pain and I found the most helpful reading guides were in the south of the border section. I hope this helps as I've been reading I've learned to not say too much or give too much information. So go south of the border and read until you can't read anymore! /default_smile.png

Welcome!

Where are you from, when I may ask? Doc's are different from country to country.

Welcome to the forum DL.  The coded words were the hardest for me to figure out but the more you read the easier it gets.  There are a few I still don't know but I'm guessing it's because they are about meds I don't use.

The code words are mainly used so if someone does a goggle search that won't end up here. And also not to make it too easy and obivious to outsiders what we are discussing since they would be able to piece together a  path of how things work.

A lot of the spelling in phonic or written like x_a_n_y_s. Get that DL?

I feel your pain. With all the pain I'm in I go from specialist to specialist doctors and none of them will help me also. I cant believe how horrible American dr's have become. They sure want your money but won't help you.
