I have been in chronic pain for a very long time, counting the years I’ve had debilitating migraines since I was 15 years old. Aside from that, I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, ME/CFS, Lupus, RA, Sjogren’s, scoliosis, degenerative disc disease, floating rib syndrome, spinal stenosis, chronic kidney stones, dry eye and dry mouth diseases, burning mouth syndrome , severe neuropathy in my feet, lower legs, arms and hands.  I also have a hiatal hernia which I need surgery for and my esophagus needs to be stretched.  I was prescribed oxycodone when I lived in the state I was diagnosed in. When I moved back to my home state..big mistake…my pain meds were stopped cold turkey. I have a-fib with tachycardia and due to the withdrawal my heart stopped. They had to perform cardioversion .  I am not on any pain meds and as you know otc meds don’t touch the pain. My health has gone downhill from weight gain due to not being able to do anything.  I’ve developed Type 2 Diabetes from the inactivity also.  I’ve tried everything..PT, acupuncture, medical marijuana, epidural spine injections, massage therapy, epsom salts baths, etc. Nothing works but opioids. I’m sorry this is so long. 

I have done physical therapy tens unit therapy and medications.

I am in chronic pain daily and would like to know how to stop it without taking any medications

My name is Melissa, I am a 45 year old female living with chronic pain. I have ankylosing spondylitis, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromialgia, degenerative disc disease and I suffer chronic fatigue. I am currently taking 30mg extended release morphine and tramadol for break-through pain and I'm still in pain.

Add me to the club! I have neuropathy in both of my legs that never go away. I've had over 20 surgeries on my spine and back because of the radiation for a tumor in my sacral bone. I have two 16 inch titanium rods in my back that literally keeps me together. This means there's two dozen screws keeping the rods in place. Over the years the screws have loosened or moved. Some are very close to nerves, Surgery to go in and correct these screws and rods would be extremely dangerous because I have MRSA/STAPH from one of my surgeries. So, pain to chronic and never goes away

I suffer from chronic pain due to a car accident I was in on Christmas Eve of 2021. My life is drastically changed due to this injury.
