    About Me

    I have 4 kids & 5 grandkids. I had a very satisfying job in health care that I loved. My life hasn't been the same since the morning of my MVA. TMJ disk displacement with reduction bilaterally, undisplaced left glenoid fracture, cracked left humerous, twisted pelvis causes my right leg to be shorter & a limp and cerviogenic headaches. My pain doc has been treating me for fibro but legal counsel don't want me to persue that diagnosis because his treatment is the same without it. Being in pain 24/7 sucks but I know it could be a whole lot worse.

    • Close TMJ

      After a facial MRI, I was diagnosed with TMJ disk displacement with reduction bilaterally.

    • Close Fibromyalgia

      I have been treated for fibro symptoms since Oct/05 but haven't been officially diagnosed.

      Treatments

      Aqua Therapy Working / Worked
      I have been doing aqua classes since Aug/05. It definitely made things worse at first but has gotten easier. Somedays are still a struggle to force myself to go.
      Nerve Blocks Working / Worked
    • Open Accidents

      I was in a MVA Oct/04. I was attempting to get out of my car when I was rear-ended.

    • Open Chronic Pain

      Since a MVA in '04 I have been dealing with TMJ, headache, neck, left shoulder, low back & right hip pain.

      Treatments

      Chiropractic Adjustment Working / Worked
      It definitely helps.
      Lyrica Somewhat Helpful
      This has decreased the intensity of the pain. I have only been on it a short time & not at the dose my pain doc wants yet. It is a slow process.
    • Open Depression

      Treatments

      Effexor Too Soon to Tell

      I live every moment of my life in pain since a MVA Oct 17/04

      Treatments

      Chiropractic Adjustment Somewhat Helpful
      relief never lasts for long

      Relaxation Somewhat Helpful
      only helps relax tissues doesn't help with joint pain
      Stretching Somewhat Helpful
      helps decrease stiffness
