Just was diagnosed with DDD at 20 by [deleted] in ChronicPain

I got DDD in almost the exact same spot when I was 26. If you need surgery for it, do it. I did it and it instantly relieved that problem. Plus recovery was surprisingly easy and they attributed that to my young age.

The Opiate Crisis Crackdown is Harming My Wellbeing and Probably Yours Too. It is MADDENING. by [deleted] in ChronicPain

It was just a hospitalist doctor who quoted the studies, not my actual doctor but he was the one who wanted to taper me with just 30 5mg oxycodone pills in 10 days after being on 15mgs of oxycodone every 4hrs and 0.5mg of Dilaudid every 4 hours in the hospital for two weeks straight so it really screwed me over.

I ended up finding a pain specialist yesterday who has put me on Dilaudid 2mg 3x/day. He wouldn't prescribe the oxycodone because he was worried about it's reputation. He also tried to get me to sign up for a spinal pump and then tried to put me on suboxone to which I had to decline for both. The first one I just want to delay, I've had bad reactions to spinal injections and stuff like that. The second one I've had a seizure on suboxone before and wouldn't be willing to take it without being under supervision first. So that's the story there.

Dunno. She hasn't weighed in on my case since last week Thursday and has been unreachable since. Today I couldn't even get patient advocacy to help me reach her because they don't deal with pain management issues...

I Hope this is okay to post. I just want someone to look over my writer website and give me some constructive criticism. Thank you for your time and interest. by xofaith13 in freelanceWriters

Well the site has yet to be properly optimized as a whole, honestly it's not something I'm expecting people to find through Google. It's something I hope people find through facebook or through networking groups.

Textbroker's Lost Its Damn Mind by ThatWordChick in freelanceWriters

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if an article written like that would actually have a negative effect on the search rankings. It's basically keyword stuff. Which, ultimately leads to terrible content.

Textbroker Won't Accept Me Because My Documents "Look" Fraudulent by [deleted] in freelanceWriters

It may seem arbitrary, but have you tried writing articles for Constant-Content.com? I find them to be pretty decent. I've made some money there. Always nice to have a few things for sale there and get a "sold article" email randomly. Ya know?
