I am trying to find a pain clinic in Ohio that takes self pay because of me being in a car accident. the accident has not gone to settlement yet. my doctor has put me on hydrocodone acetamin 10-300 prn Q4hrs, valium 5mg Q6hrs, Neurontin 600mg 3x day. I have a bulging disc and pinched nerve in my neck, and bulging discs and pinched nerves in my back. i also have ddd. I lost my insurance due to my job letting me go since I could not return. I have been a nurse for 10yrs and it seems like no one wants to help me get better so I can function on a daily basis and return to working. I have applied for disability and Medicaid but they say that can take 60 days and no one wants to touch me without any insurance. im getting desperate. please help
I have studied your case and I agree with you that without Medicaid things are bad. Back pain with disc problem, I think Valium is not needed. If you was my patient I will advise you these tings.1. Avoid heavy weight lifting or forward bending.2. Take calcium and vitamin D3 daily,this will make your spine stronger.3. Take pregabalin one at nighttime for pain. 4. Also take Attract one tablet twice daily for back pain.5. You need tablet Methylcobal once daily.6. Wear belt specially made for back and neck.
