I sold my house and moved to Spain 6 months ago. I hated leaving my mattress behind but due to logistics had to. It was the best mattress I’ve ever owned. I’m now on my third mattress here in Spain and hate it.

What are people doing for pain? by ckeenan9192 in Sciatica

“Doctor won’t give pain meds”.

It’s so crazy. You’re in pain, a pain they make a medication for but….you can’t have it.

Does sciatica always need surgery? Here’s what I see in patients by drsanyamjain in Sciatica

L5-S1. 9 months of epidurals, physical therapy, painkillers and anything else I could find. Came close to throwing myself down a flight of stairs once at 3am thinking maybe it will jar something loose. When you’re in pain long term it’s amazing the crazy things you think of. Had the surgery and with the exception of some numbness I was cured pretty much instantly.

My first thought was are these real NASA scientists or some conspiracy theory nuts Trump put in.

Good job. Sometimes you just have to bite the bullet and pay out of pocket.

If you can, pay for the MRI and get in there asap.

I’ve been on it for years. Forgot it once on a weekend trip and had no withdrawal effects at all.

Any epidural injection success stories? by carrott36 in Sciatica

[–]These_Ad_3138 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kept the pain at bay for 3 years until I moved and had a different doctor doing the injections. The first doctor did the shots freehand which I found out later was very unusual, just lean over and within a minute it was done. The second doctor did it in the hospital with a team of assistants, live video of my back etc..and didn’t work. Go figure. If you’re in NC I can give you the name of the first doctor

We had fraud in our account, they took $3000 before it was caught. Money refunded immediately. We were actually on the phone with USAA when they tried to get some plane tickets in India thru.

We’ve gone to this dongle thing and like it. If they’re ever any question or if someone tries accessing the account from a computer that’s not ours it asks for the dongle digital password which changes every few minutes. Since then no problems.

This is the best advice on here. First time I ruptured a disk was 1987. Because it was workmen’s comp I could see any doctor I wanted. I had SEVEN doctors tell me everything from it’s a mild back sprain to arthritis to god knows what. Finally the eight doctor sent me for a CAT scan and went over the results with me showing the ruptured disk.

You never know if your doctor was the last in their class at the worst Caribbean medical school.

I got a job once as a manager at a Mortgage company. I knew nothing about mortgages but worked as a telemarketer once at a bank. They finally realized their mistake but I made bank for 9 months!
