I don't look like I have pain......

Just because you are not bent over, and on a walker does not mean you don't have chronic pain. I have suffered for the last 15 years, been addicted to every pain killer out there and now use Exercise solely to treat pain. It has been one hell of a ride.

4 lumbar fusions, 1 thoracic fusion, spinal cord injury (no feeling in fingers, toes and calves and, AVN in right hip and knee. Fibro (if my doctors will recognize it exist) Severe chronic pain 24/7.

Jan 2018 (get a new hip!!!)

Thanks for all of your support.
