Noa and Deb,
I posted this to PSB. Deb, sorry to take so long in responding, honestly, I didn't see your post until today. My bad.
Yeah, I did get the B12 shot and it did help some. Not the miracle I was hoping for, but a definite improvement. The doctor's nurse said she recommends them to anyone who works longs hours, takes sedating meds, etc. So, I plan to have one every month from here on out. I'm doing better, seeing a pain management specialist for my back and knee and she seems to be on the ball so far. She thinks my back pain is a pinched nerve and originates in my neck. She's put me on Nortriptyline which she tells me was developed originally for nerve pain, I didn't know that, I always thought it was an AD. It's helped me some, but not enough to make me happy. The next step is an MRI, at least then I'll know for sure what's going on back there. In the mean time, I've been working on improving my attitude, it has really sucked for quite awhile now. Ah well, Rome wasn't built in a day...
Thanks for asking about me and I'm sorry to ramble on so. How are both of you? Are you hanging in there? I hope so, you deserve only the best my dears!
Greg
