I Had 4 Back Surgeries Within A Month And A

I had 4 back surgeries within a month and a half. I was diagnosed with degenerative disc disease and they replaced 4 disc in my lower back. Dr. Put wires that were too thick so he used my ex husbands wk wire cutters to cut out if my back do I ended up with staff infection and that's why I had the 3 other surgeries cause it wld not stay closed.
Well I have been diagnosed with spondyloasis and also osteoarthritis and sciatica. And now I was told I have discovered pinching on nerve and one pinching on nerve root. I am in constant pain and most days can barely walk or even send up. A lot of the treatments tend to make it worse and then I end up in bed for several days to a coupkeep weeks. I don't know what to do most Dr's where I live won't see me cause I had surgery and have been told my back is severely messed up. I don't know what to do and now the osteoarthritis is affecting my hands and they hurt me so bad I can't stand it especially I the winter. If I ever get cold I freeze. How can I find someone to help me. And what's amazing is my family and boyfriend all think there's nothing wrong with me. They expect me to do housecleaning, laundry carrying baskets sweeping and mopping and dishes and that I vcan keep going. I want to cry cause I hurt so bad. But they won't help. Please help me figure out what to do and who to see and how do I make these people realize I barely walk oright get up and down. My balance is bad and I have fell a day broke both ankles within a month apart. My feet constantly move because of the spasms I have in my back. Please help me. Michelle Kennedy....
