Fractured 3 thoracic vertebrae January '07 as a result of osteoporosis, and am still having a lot of pain. Have lost nearly 3" in height and many days can only walk bent forward from the waist, other days I just have the signature 'hump' of Osteo!
Treatments
- Flexeril Somewhat Helpful
- Hydrocodone Somewhat Helpful
- for breakthru
- Morphine Somewhat Helpful

- Nerve Blocks Somewhat Helpful
- Short lived results,and only partial relief at that, maybe 2 wks after ea set!
Close Macular Degeneration
I'm finding that I look at the 'puter screen etc with my head turned away to see details more sharply!!! Needless to say I'm scared! I saw my optometrist and so far so good!
Treatments
- Lutein Working / Worked
- I have started on the combination of specific vitamins & minerals used to treat AMD, with their antioxidents properties! attempts at Prevention never hurt.
Open Euthanasia
Interested in the many facets of this topic!
