I had a two level fusion and discectomy back in October. I had to advocate so relentlessly to obtain a decent dose Valium since it works on bad spasms. I had just undergone major neck surgery. I know Drs have to be careful but it feels like there is an over correction where pain management is concerned.

It’s really a sad state of affairs. I know I have to have more discs fixed. My neck is in advanced stages of arthritis.

I’m not afraid of the pain. I’m afraid of the suffering.
