yrs, 3back surgerys, and i'm still in pain every day . No it's not just a little pain I'm suffering almost day . I wake up at night feeling as if I have a 1000 lb. weight arround my waist . All that happened was I sliped in water at Work and fell. Sounds crazy but I was 50 yrs. old . We tend to break easier that younger people .They found a herniated disk, and other damage . 2 surgerys to fix these problems, and after each they had me go to P.T. Hurt my back after each session of P.T. Found out by third Dr. that even after 2nd. surgery I had a 1/2" to 1" gap in my spine { very painful } I've now had 3rd surgery { fusion } They keep telling me to go back to work but just like the other times I think something else is wrong . I feel I know my body . I've been on so many pain meds. for so long, and still suffer every day. Now I'm going to shrink for Depperession. This 1 I have is W. comp. {i do have ATTORNEY }
Should I go get another Dr. to see what is going on or what should I do ?
