Pain management = nothing exciting

So on my last appointment with my pain management doctor nothing exciting happened. I got my scripts refilled and a couple shots in my back. Same stuff I've been getting. Except he put my next appointment two months out. That's the only thing that changed. I think he feels that I'm stable maybe. I don't know but I don't like that this is it. Pills and shots?
I feel like he's a good doctor but as he stated pm only treats the symptoms.

Grrrrr I wish there was a more clear resolution.

I'm not stable damn it!

Recap - Degenerative disc disease

Just to recap for those who do not want to go through all my posts to find what all I have been going through and doing, I will just give a quick run down.
For starters I live in the U.S., I got me a doggie, I am married and I still work.
I have 2 discs that are gone or at least appear to be in my MRI. I have huge boobs, but I made a consultation for a reduction hopefully it works cuz these suckers are huge!
I have a slight bulge and a slight slip over my coccyx.
Work is, ehhhhhh well work. I do nothing strenuous but sit and talk on the phone....for me and some others it's a nightmare. Just the thought of sitting all day in one spot without the opportunity to lie down, CRaZY.
My husband and puppy are amazing both of them are very supportive of me :)
Now for the medical stuff.
I have had problems forever and a day, since I was like 13. Got diagnosed at like 28-ish. I always thought I was a hypochondriac and my back was just my imagination or something. Probably it was my boobs.
Dr. wanted me to get a double fusion when I was 30 however insurance denied it. He was opting for an ALIF. It is where they go in from the front.
Referred to pain management after that all got denied. I'm now 31.
I see my doctor about every month.
I do physical therapy twice a week.
I get steroid and anti-inflammatory shots, 4 different pills and I recently got my at home tens unit.
Therapy is different. I see different people so they are all trying different things. The latest was cranial sacral method. Feels fine for like a day then back to pain. My previous therapist worked more on strength and core and that seemed the most helpful. I try to do exercises at home but its just not the same. I need to get into a serious regimine maybe that will help.
So that's what I've been doing in a nut shell. I have another post comming up here in a few days after I see my doctor until then I will be trying out my exercises.
:)

No Improvement?

Since probably 2 doctor visits ago I have seen no improvement. The last time I seen my doctor I told him everything felt like it was plateauing. This month I feel like absolutely no improvement has been made. I do know I slacked off on my exercises and that does seem to help. Maybe I should make it a point this month to get back into it. My physical therapist thinks I am strong enough. Other than that I am not quite sure what is going on. If I have just reached my point of wellness or what.

Side Note: I might be getting rid of these BOOBS!! Yay!! I made an appointment for a consultation in August so we shall see! They are so big I am hoping they will be like yeah those puppies are going bye-bye, lol.

I am wondering if everything will feel so much better after they are gone. I have been noticing difficulty in bending forward to pick things up off the ground or chairs or whatever. Not that it has ever been super easy but yeah know.

Anywho, I noticed I have not posted this month. It has been such a busy month. Such as, we went blueberry picking this morning good thing we got kids around. There are so many berries around LOVE IT!! Cherry picking will be on Monday for sure. Gotta get in on some of that sweetness.

Well I will update after I see my doctor on Tuesday. My goodness such a mix up with my gabapentin(neurontin) last month. I had to get it switched to a 90 day supply otherwise my insurance would not accept it. It took forever and I had to pay out of pocket for 21 pills it cost like 25$ ....STUPID INSURANCE.... I guess I really can't live without my insurance. I wish I lived somewhere with free but good medical care!! I feel like I pay enough in taxes that I should just be taken care of all the way. :)
Alrighty new post probably Tuesday or Wednesday!
Take care for now!
