Guest guest Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 I injured my back and that is what started the severe pain initially. My RA Dr. said that I had it all along but did not have any great problem with it until after injuring my back and had to have 3 back surgeries. I do have days every so often where my back is the main focus for the pain and only gets better after and injection for pain and bedrest. I have lower-lumbar deterioration of the L4-L5 region.

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 Hi , I believe most people with RA have back pain. Why, because our pain makes us walk different, sleep different, and sit different. When I visit my chiropractor, I normally have 3-4 ribs out of place, and my hips and neck are always out of alignment. Hips and neck....these are the places that I have had several, not 9 or 10, but several cortisone shots over the years. I stopped accepting cortisone shots over a year ago because no matter how much better they make me feel for a month or so, the long term, I believe has damaged my body more than helped. Thanks for listening. Take care, (musiclvr3237) From: dptexdreamr@... <dptexdreamr@...> Subject: [ ] Question.....
