pain
"I have chronic severe back pain from an injury at work.  Fractured my T12 and messed up my lower back and a pinched nerve.  I have been through Physical therapy, nerve blocks.  I am now on Oxycontin 10 mg 3 x's a day, Vicodin 5/500 for break through pain (I take about 4 in 24 hours), Neurontin 300mg 3 times a day and Paxil for depression.  Before being placed on all of the above my pain level was at 8-9. Now my pain level is 6-7 except if it rains or is cold then it's a 9.  I'm still unable to do anything.  Pain increases with any activity despite the medicines, plus I feel faint when I stand up, brain is foggy, poor memory. Hear common noises that I mistake for something else like singing or talking."
