being in constant pain really bites

[MosportGreen66]

Best of luck with appointments. I know the uneasy feeling. Suffering from migraine headaches pretty much my entire life, I make a habit of seeking assistance from neurologists and cardiologist. My health lies in their hands. Luckily I have found professionals who are trustworthy and brilliant in their fields. The right doctors take years to find. Again, Good luck!

besides the pain it's the lack of motor skills i'm noticing more of lately. i have to really think alot just to make sure my r/arm moves i have alot of problems with finger dexterity.one of the tests the doctor did was having my eyes closed and he would stick my fingers with either one or two pins randomly. i couldn't tell at all which finger or how many times he did this.this pain has been relentless with sometimes pain strong enough to make me get upset.another issue was when i had the surgey done last year it damaged more of the brachial plexus so i've got constant numbness in my elbow and forearm now.this neurosurgeon also mentioned that my pectoral and trapezious muscles have atrophied to almost no muscle tone because of no nerve activity.there is also the possibility of this nerve problem not getting any better only getting worse.

musclcar, i can feel your pain. Two years ago i had my foot ran over at work, and fractured a bone. I have severe nerve trauma and bone never healed. I had surgery to remove the bone. I have CRPS, chronic regional pain syndrom. It can cause muscle lose and bone deteriation. I have been off work for 2yrs. and i have lumbar nerve blocks to ease the pain. I also use neurontin, it will take about a month for it to really help. Hang in there.........
