Request From Ispine Members
Hi Everyone,
I hope I'm not out of line here but I have a favor to ask of members who have a profile at globalpatientservices.com. If you have films on that site, could you please PM me with your info/password or post it here? I would very much like to compare my films with yours and also compare my situation to yours. As I've said before I'm back to work and finished with PT, however I still have horrible pain in my back. (My leg has improved though) I had my first incident since my surgery where I had shooting/stabbing pain that dropped me to the ground this week. I was only down for a couple of minutes and got up immediately. Hopefully this is just the pain peak that some people experience before they really start feeling better. I refuse to raise my medication. 240mg of Oxycontin a day is the highest I will go.
I really want to understand more about what we all have in common. Maybe there's something I'm doing or not doing and seeing your films/reports may help me. I understand this is personal info and I won't be offended if people say no.
I'll show you mine if you show me yours.
