I have an FSM machine. It really does help with my nerve pain. Unfortunately the easing of the pain doesn't seem to stick around for me. I have to continue to run the machine to get relief.

It's great while it's on, though!

Ain't cheap. We paid over 2 grand for ours.

Thank you, Lernica. I was not aware of Cora's situation.

I will contact her.

I had my pain doctor tell me yesterday that every 1 1/2 to 2 years a person who is taking round-the-clock opioids should go off of them completely for at least 3 months, in order to reset the person's system.

It is so bad I am bedridden with it.  I don't know what to do.  I believe that the ins...

I have already had pudendal nerve release surgery and 8 heads later have developed a horrific case of SI joint dysfunction. It is so bad I am bedridden with it.  Don't know what to do.  I believe that the instability may be bad enough that it cannot be conservatively corrected.  Should I consider SI...

Thank you to everyone that posted such kind words to me on this. I still breakdown in wails of grief when I think about it, which I don't do unless there is no one in the house.

Has anyone here tried a drug pump?

I am correctly looking into it...

I'm interested in finding out:
1) did it help you
2) if so, how much
3) where did they out your drug catheter?

Thanks for your kindness. Its too late, tho. Once you sign the papers its done deal. You cannot get a dog back. Dottie essenti ally had a nervous breakdown. She felt the horrible anxiety in the house and suffered because I wasn't there for her. It could have beeen health-related. I don't know. But s...
