Done Surgery For Lower Back Pain. Can You Recommend Pain Management Doctors In West Tennessee?
Hey Doc. I have low back problems and have for the past 8 years. 1 neurosurgeon said total fusion of my 5 lower vertebrae. I opted to do pain management instead. I stopped all pain medications in February of this year. Couldn t live with pain. Had surgery at Laser Spine Institute in July. Need 2 more surgeries due to problems at 3 levels. I live with chronic pain. I am an assistant principal at a high school in tennessee. I want to make it until for retirement. Can you reccomend Pain Management doctors in west tennessee? Little druggies have made it impossible for me to get help. They treat me like some street addict. I have a lovely wife and 3 kids and want to enjoy life. PAIN has taken my life from me.

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
You got medical treatment for back ache since 8 years. Had surgery at laser institute in july yet 2 surgeries are to be done, and feeling chronic pain.
The information of the doctors , is difficult to fetch, but you can have some suggetions to go through.
I to my patient with such symptoms prescribe neurotropic injections for 10 consecutive days, and then one injection every week, fortnight and then monthly for ever.
Avoid taking potato, other tubers, tomato,egg, chicken, and sea foods. These will bring down the dosages of the pain medication slowly.
Besides you can have your surgeries , pain medication, and rest every thing as usual.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
