scheduled me for a Right Lumbar 5 sacral transforaminal epidural and right lumbar 3 4 5 medial branch block next week. He also has put me on ultram, i started taking vicodin last week which doesnt help so decided with the pain I am in to break down and take minimal pain meds. I just wont go back on the duragesic patch or the Morphine. He started me back on the TENS unit, and My OSS filed the appeal and I sent in my paperwork to the medical review board, so now we wait and see. I have been in bed for a week now, and my house looks like hell.

Julaine - We can't see your house from here, so it's OK! Close your eyes and you won't see it either. ;-)
