New member, chronic back pain for 10 years

[mammajo]

Howdy everyone!  I live in Texas and have been suffering with chronic back pain from a car accident for the last 10 years!  Have only tried 2 meds to date,

not much seems to take the pain away and PM is very tight!  Just started exploring online hoping to find alternatives and stumbled upon this site!  Glad to be hear and learn from y'all!

Welcome. I'm a fairly new member, but have been popping in and reading for some time. Spinal issues and multiple surgeries since 1993. Yep, I'm an old bird. If you're willing to read, you will find the help and support you need. Good folks here.

Hi @mammajo

can you mayne give some detail, if you don't mind of course,? I have had back and legs affected due to the nerves being involved by bu,ting discs pressing onto them. I've run the gamut of pain meds, epidural injections and facet joint injections but recently I've had some success with nerve block injections. I have a lot,of experience with this and if I can help then I will. Don't be afraid to ask questions ok 

enjoy this place. I am new too and am really finding I need my daily fix of DBG

Kimd regards

I have grade 3 spondylolisthesis and nerve pain.  Pain is so bad in the morning I can barely walk!  Tried 2 sets of injections with limited success.  Love to hear your suggestions!
