Guest guest Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 One year ago I injured my back resulting in damage to right L 5. I have been in pain and out of work since. Treatment has included physical therapy, four injections and two spinal surgeries. Unfortunately it is a workers comp. case and they have sort of given up on me. The doctor they sent me to said, " Suck it up. " I am being treated by a psychiatrist, two spinal surgeons and a physiatrist so I am getting by...but this is a real drag! I am sorry for everyone here who is suffering and struggling with finding a treatment to maintain the semblance of a normal life. It is great to have a forum like this, thank you for being here.

It's " disinissues " , as in disability insurance issues. Check it out; they have knowledgable members, and a host of helpful files you can access once you're a member. Welcome to this group, though I'm sorry for the pain that's caused you to have to find it. in Oregon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
