I don't know what I would do without him.
My blog is about the "silent epidemic" as it is called Chronic Pain. The truth about chronic pain is that it knows no age limits or racial barriers. There are 73 million people in this country suffering from this deadly and unrelenting disease. I hope to call attention to the under treatment and stigma of chronic pain and the people who suffer just like me. I welcome your feedback and comments.
JUST REMEMBER, YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!

The information on this blog is my own views based on living with Chronic Pain for 25 years and my dealings with the medical system in this country. These are my own words and my blog is in no way endorsed by any of the websites that I have linked to in my favorite websites. Dr. Charles Burton, of http://www.burtonreport.com/, has been kind enough to allow me to use some material from his site. This material will appear in quotes with a link back to the relevant page of his site. I encourage all who have spinal problems to study his information.
My anger and frustration with failed surgeries and other envasive procedures that have only caused more chronic pain for people like myself has motivated me to put my life of chronic pain into words. I also have done research on this topic for 18 years and though I am not a medical Doctor, my words are based on provable information.
My primary reason for even publishing this blog, is hoping to draw attention to the under treatment of Chronic Pain of the 60 million people in this country who suffer so much to the Politicans and Physicians in this Country.
Where is the "Compassion" especially from the medical industry.
This subject is not pretty or sexy, but someone has to talk about it. Just remember the next victim could be YOU!
Chronic pain is one of the most stigmatized and ignored medical conditions in this country. Just go to some of the pain forums and you can see for yourself. Most of the people have multiple surgeries, fusions, and implants. What do they have to show for it? For the majority, like me, they have spent thousands of dollars for these proceduries and all they have to show for it is more pain. Then we have the pain management profession, most that are nothing but "procedure mills". If you ask for pain medication, unless you have a long term relationship with the Doctor, the answer is no I am afraid you might become addicted. Give me a break!! If I sound bitter and angry, its because I am. This has been my life for the last 23 years and my own personal experiences.

To control the pain we must attend to the specialist because we can give him what is appropriate and what we need, for example I take vicodin which is a medicine used to counter severe pain that I have for years, but I prescribed rioja the doctor, I take it in moderation because I read in findrxonline.com which is a medicine that causes anxiety, and we must control it as it can affect your nervous system, and not because it really automediquen could be dangerous.
An equipment of the American Hospital of Children of Boston concluded that the high cholesterol levels accelerate the growth of tumors in the prostate, and also that the medicines to reduce to the cholesterol, calls estatina, can inhibit the growth of the prostate cancer, well said by the last findrxonline bill being debated at this time. The findings of the study could help to understand why the prostate cancer is commonest in the West, where the diets tend to be high in cholesterol. The rates of cancer of the prostate in the countryside of China and Japan, where generally the diets are low in fats, are 90% less than in the West. Nevertheless, when Eastern men emigrate towards the West increase the possibilities of being diagnosed with cancer of the prostate. That has lead the doctors to suspect that factors of the environment, like the diet, could play a significant role in the development of the disease.
The medicines that are used for bone pain are narcotics findrxonline as opioids such as Vicodin, Lortab, OxyContin, hydrocodone and the doctors that are usually used to combat pain they cause diseases such as homeopathy, fibromyalgia and even cancer In general, these medicines are used mostly is the United States and Europe are controlled because their use can lead to addiction.
I take vicodin and oxycodone for the treatment of this disease because the doctor prescribed me after a thorough examination, seek information and findrxonline logically points out that these medicines should be tightly controlled by its high content of codeine and this makes one induces these opioids the use of these pain medications without a prescription.
