The nerve…

Last night, my pain was so bad I couldn’t sleep. My days have turned into an epic struggle against pain.

I went to a new pain management doctor today. He strongly suspects that my pain is caused from irritated nerve endings. He’s going to give me a series of nerve blocks and, if that doesn’t help, he’s going to snuff out the nerve and freeze it’s ending(s) and there was another procedure he talked about that I can’t remember/pronounce. I was becoming depressed and was losing all hope, but this has rekindled the fire beneath my ass.

So, I went from thinking I was dying of cancer to learning I was dealing with/experiencing nerve pain. I hope to God he’s right.

Another thing he told me is that my irritation is caused from arthritis, i.e. DDD, TCJD, etc. IT IS A COMMON AILMENT AND MOST PEOPLE GET IT AS THEY AGE (30-50 yoa). My point is, people experiencing this (common) pain think it’s something different, (more serious) and spend butt-loads of their hard-earned money chasing a cure/diagnosis. If you’re one of these people, there is hope!!!!

My first nerve block is scheduled for 9:00 AM on Thursday, March 29. Until then…
